Carol Steinberg Esq. calls © Registration " Artists' Liability Insurance," because it allows an artist to win significant $$ and have her attorneys' fees paid if creative work is used without permission. Just imagine if you discovered one of your images on a trendy restaurant's menu. You tell them to pay you a fair fee or stop using it, but they refuse. What can you do? If you have registered your ©, you will have significant options available to you. Attorney, East Hampton Arts Council and School of Visual Arts Faculty Member Carol Steinberg will explain the basics and benefits of Copyright Registration in a workshop hosted by the Amagansett Library and the East Hampton Arts Council via zoom on March 31st at 6 p.m. Carol will also walk you through the process.

PLEASE JOIN US ON THURSDAY, MARCH 4th FROM 6 - 7:30pm FOR OUR FIRST VIRTUAL CREATIVE NETWORKING NIGHT, FEATURING LOCAL CREATIVES AND CHANCE TO MEET EACH OTHER AND NETWORK! REGISTER FOR THE WEBINAR BELOW AND YOU WILL BE SENT A ZOOM LINK:
