Your Visual Art as an Asset
with Joy Berus, Esq.

This workshop will provide visual artists with a broad range of information on the business of being an artist. We will cover the major issues and tips relating to consignment agreements, private commission agreements, purchases, sales, loans, and leases. We will also discuss how to deal with clients and galleries who are business entities such as LLCs and corporations, what these entities are, and if you should be one. Finally, you will learn how to protect and defend your rights under the California Resale Royalty Act.
