Black Lunch Table (BLT) will host an edit-a-thon at Santa Monica College's Art Department (Room 119) focusing on important but underrepresented visual artists, curators, and art workers of the African Diaspora on Monday, April 21, 2025 at 5 pm. A training session will be held at the beginning but help is available throughout the event. This event is free.

Please bring your laptop so you can join the editing and bring a friend! The more, the merrier! Snacks provided.

Black Lunch Table (BLT) project creates a space to encourage people of color and women to join the Wikimedia movement while also asking white male editors to focus on gaps in coverage on Wikimedia. Together we will create historical documents that respond to the urgent need for a reconstruction of the art historical record.

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. A brief overview of the basics of Wikipedia editing will be given at the start of the edit-a-thon.

Black Lunch Table (BLT) is an ongoing collaboration between artists Jina Valentine (Fishantena (talk)) and Heather Hart (Heathart (talk)) which intends to fill holes in the documentation of contemporary art history. In its 13-year existence, the BLT has taken a variety of forms relating to this most recent iteration, in the form of the Wikipedia edit-a-thon. BLT’s aim is the production of discursive sites (at literal and metaphorical lunch tables), wherein cultural producers of color engage in critical dialogue on topics directly affecting our communities. They endeavor to create spaces, online and off, mirroring the activity and creativity present in sites where Blackness and Art are performed.

The Art Department of Santa Monica College offers an extensive and very well-received program in Studio Art, Art History, and Design. The primary mission of the program is to prepare students for upper-division study at a four-year, two-year, university or art school and/or to earn an Associate in Arts degree. Secondary objectives include portfolio preparation for students seeking admission to the Arts and Entertainment Academy and other two-year vocational training programs.
