Deciding what happens to your artwork after you’re gone is important, and having a plan in place for your estate will also be valuable for those you care about. Join in a conversation about how to be proactive in protecting your artistic legacy with Martha Rans, Pacific Legal Education & Outreach Society’s Legal Director. Session includes a Q&A for participants to ask their questions during the live-streamed event.
This workshop was developed by Pacific Legal Education & Outreach Society, which is a group of volunteer lawyers and law students committed to working with artists and arts organizations. PLEO offers resources, workshops and clinics across BC.
