Event Info
Description
Are you an artist or designer producing original material? This event will provide copyright and shared platform advice in partnership with Arts Council England, North East.
Whether you're new or experienced within the art and design industry you need to protect your copyright. Your original work has great potential value, but keeping hold of this asset or being paid appropriately can be challenging. This event will help you answer important questions about copyright and provide personal insight from a successful individual working in the industry.
Speakers will include:
