Many an artist with a few years under their belt has unfortunate stories to share involving legal matters. What should be done if your image is appropriated? What happens if a gallery loses your work? How can you protect yourself when embarking upon a work commission? This workshop will delve into important legal information for all artists, from copyright basics to contracts.
