WSPA participants are working to raise awareness about [[public art]] on a community level by locating art, researching it, and publishing information and images about it in Wikipedia. This work is similar to the [[Save Outdoor Sculpture!]] program, but is more open and collaborative since the final published information will be available in Wikipedia, one of the most visited websites in the world.
You can participate in the project by working with the [http://sirismm.si.edu/siris/ariquickstart.htm SOS! Database] and searching for public art in your community.
'''Step 1: Consult the Save Outdoor Sculpture! Database'''
* Go to the [http://sirismm.si.edu/siris/ariquickstart.htm SOS! Database] to find what public artworks were documented in your state.
* Click on your state, then city. (Cities may have only one artwork, hundreds, or none.)
* Once a list of sculptures is up, click on the title of the artwork for the detailed report on a specific sculpture, and possibly photos.
