Copyright Information

Regarding those of you that are interested in copyright information for your artwork, you may want to check out http://www.njvla.org/mission.html.

Some info from their mission page:
"...today New Jersey artists face more legal issues than ever before. The internet has breathed new life into copyright and trademark infringement claims. The proliferation of cable channels means more independent producers are looking for production contracts. Newark and Jersey City gentrification has reduced the amount of affordable housing available to the struggling artist.
In short, New Jersey artists and arts organizations have a growing need for accessible attorneys and legal education. Only by safeguarding their legal interests can artists hope to enrich New Jersey’s cultural and economic community.
That’s why New Jersey Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts was formed. We help artists and arts organizations through pro bono attorney referrals and legal education."
