Google Reception
Google Opening Reception, showcasing the World Digital Library
Wikimania attendees and honored guests, please join the Library of Congress, The Wikimedia Foundation and Wikimedia District of Columbia on the evening of July 11 from 7–8:30pm in the Library of Congress Thomas Jefferson Building Great Hall for a gorgeous opening reception to this year's Wikimania! The Library of Congress has graciously given us tour guides and open access to the two exhibits right off the Great Hall: Jefferson's Library and Exploring the Early Americas. To fully take advantage of these opportunities and still have time to eat, drink, and mingle, you should arrive earlier rather than later.
Since Wikimania spans generations there are going to be volunteers at the alcoholic drink tables who will help the bartenders card. All food and drink will be provided on the second floor of the Main Hall. No food or beverages are permitted in the exhibits.
So put on your best outfit, leave your laptop at the hotel or at home, bring a photo ID along with your conference badge, and join us at the world's largest library to celebrate the start of Wikimania 2012 and showcase the World Digital Library!
As this is a federal building, security is somewhat higher. Leave pointy metal objects (knives, multi-tools, etc.) at home, hotel, hostel! Or prepare to have it confiscated when going through the metal detector. (It will not be returned if confiscated.)
