Today, artists in all disciplines are choosing to collaborate with institutions and individuals outside the traditional art community to create work that engages topics of social and political relevance. The Real Community Engagement workshop is designed to help artists clarify their objectives and gain the management skills they need to produce successful community-engaged projects. Professional Development Program workshops are designed to accommodate artists in all disciplines and at all stages of their careers. This diversity of participation helps create new alliances across genres and generations, which, in turn, leads to one of the program’s lasting effects: stronger artistic communities in the cities where these workshops are presented.

The facilitator, Aaron Landsman, is a playwright, performer and teacher. His stage plays have been presented in New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland and Minneapolis, as well as in Sweden, Norway and Belarus. He has taught at The Juilliard School and NYU and guest lectured at many colleges and universities including Columbia and Stanford Universities. He is an advocate for artists in Belarus and Turkey, whose freedom of expression, he feels, is under threat. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife Johanna S. Meyer and their son Harold Emmett Landsman.

For more information, please call Adriane Clarke, grants specialist, 954-357-7530.

From Broward County: Artist as an Entrepreneur Institute Returns to South Florida

Received this info from the good folks up at the Broward County Cultural Division. They are offering some educational sessions to help artists build their business of art. Definitely worth checking out.

- – - – - – -

Artist as an Entrepreneur Institute Returns to South Florida
A series of full-day sessions to be offered on four Saturdays, starting June 2, 2012 at ArtServe Inc., 1350 East Sunrise Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale

Participation costs $100 and includes light refreshments and free parking. Click HERE to register online or contact Broward Cultural Division’s Grants Management Specialist Adriane Clarke, at 954-357-7530 for more information.

Broward Cultural Division, The Community Partnership for Arts and Culture (CPAC), and ArtServe, Inc. announce The Artist as an Entrepreneur Institute (AEI) for South Florida artists to be presented on four Saturdays in June 2012, at ArtServe, Inc., 1350 East Sunrise Blvd. in Fort Lauderdale.

The AEI is a course of study designed to assist individual artists of all disciplines (visual, musicians, writers, media, theater, performing arts) by cultivating and advancing their business skills, and is designed at strengthening their operating infrastructure and expanding their businesses. The course has been refreshed this year with a new format, and new modules. To date, 300 South Florida artists have graduated from the Institute. AEI will be offered as 20 classes convening during full-day sessions (9:00 am – 6:00 pm) on June 2, 9, 16, 2012 and a Business Plan Clinic and Workshop on June 23, 2012 (9:00 am – 2:00 pm).

Registrants will receive an AEI course book, an indispensable resource for artists. Developed by CPAC, the course book features exercises and readings to prepare for each session, and is tailored to the specific needs of artist entrepreneurs.

The Business Plan Clinic guides participants through preparation of a simple business plan, an essential tool for any artist. In addition, participants will learn how to work effectively with lenders to obtain financial support through the Artist Micro Credit Program, a community-based revolving loan program, designed to assist resident Broward County practicing professional and emerging artists.

Designed to help artists operate in the marketplace more successfully, the AEI course curriculum covers all aspects of developing an artistic business. It helps artists identify and develop their personal brand, develop strategies for communicating with target markets, raise capital and identify a variety of tools for protecting one’s work legally.

The AEI curriculum offers critical support for artists, enabling them to contribute to strengthening the vitality of the larger urban arts and culture sector. Sessions include a mix of lectures, panels, group discussions and practical exercises. Now in its sixth year, the 2012 program has been updated and refreshed with a new format, new modules and new instructors.

“Art works” is a declaration that with two million full-time artists and 5.7 million arts-related jobs in this country, arts jobs are real jobs that are part of the real economy. Art workers pay taxes, and art contributes to economic growth, neighborhood revitalization, and the livability of American towns and cities,” says Chairman, National Endowment for the Arts, Rocco Landesman.

Seminar: Legal Issues for the Contemporary Artist October 22, 2011

Received this great seminar information from the Broward County Cultural Division. Highly recommended.

- – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – -

Legal Issues for the Contemporary Artist
Presented by Lawyer Sergio Muñoz Sarmiento, Esq.
Saturday, October 22, 2011, 9: 00 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.
ArtServe, Inc.
1350 sunrise Blvd.
Fort Lauderdale

Broward County Commission’s Cultural Division, ArtServe, Inc., and the South Florida Artists Association will present Legal Issues for the Contemporary Artist with the Associate Director of Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts, Sergio Muñoz Sarmiento, Esq. This is a unique set of training sessions to assist individual artists working in all disciplines.

The half-day seminar for arts professionals will cover the legal and business issues that affect individual artists and professionals within arts and cultural organizations. This is a course for artists of all disciplines, including visual artists, performance artists, writers, fashion designers, filmmakers, musicians, web designers, and anyone working in interactive media. Also, cultural organizations, recently admitted attorneys and other professionals who represent artists, should also benefit from this program.

“Legal issues can be overwhelming for many visual and performing artists: relationships with galleries, appropriation practices, damaged artwork, art world employment practices, fundraising for projects, and collaborations with other artists are just some of the issues visual artists face,” says Sarmiento. With this in mind, Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts has structured a half-day workshop for contemporary artists that will make legalese comprehensible and manageable, while giving visual artists an introduction to legal issues necessary to protect themselves and their art projects. This half-day workshop will cover intellectual property (copyright and trademarks); contracts and consignment agreements; basic business models (non-profit and for-profit corporations, LLC’s, fiscal sponsorships); employment issues with studio and gallery assistants; artist websites.

Sergio Muñoz Sarmiento, Esq., is currently the Associate Director for Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts in New York City, where he advises and represents visual and performing artists and arts organizations. He received his BA in Art from the University of Texas-El Paso, and an MFA in Art from The California Institute of the Arts. In 1997 he was a Van Lier Fellow at the Whitney Museum’s Independent Study Program in Studio Art, and received his J.D. from Cornell Law School. He is an Adjunct Professor of art law at Fordham Law School, and is also the Program Director and faculty of VLA’s Art & Law Residency Program. His legal experience includes advising artists, galleries, and arts organizations on matters involving copyright, trademarks, moral rights, free speech, and artist-gallery disputes. He has recently worked on an important appeal under the Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990 on behalf of the Swiss installation artist Christoph Büchel in the artist’s highly-publicized dispute with the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art.
