Art Law for Jewelers and Craftspeople

Special Lunch Program!

As an artist, jeweler or person working in a creative field, it's important to understand the law as it relates to your work. A basic understanding of intellectual property law will help you protect your work and avoid disputes with other parties. Learn about the legal principles of copyright, trademark and design patent law as they apply to works of artistic craftsmanship, like sculptures and jewelry.

If you've ever used someone else's work as an "inspiration", you'll learn some of the differences between appropriately using ideas from another's work and unlawfully copying artistic expression. And if you've ever felt that someone else has used your work inappropriately or without permission, you'll learn the basics of infringement and how to bring a claim. Be sure to bring your questions! This is an excellent introductory seminar for all artists and for business or licensing attorneys whose clients include artists.
