VLA Legal and Business Boot Camp for Arts Professionals

Due to the overwhelming success of the national VLA Legal and Business Boot Camp for Arts Professionals program, VLA is offering an additional New York Boot Camp on Saturday, September 30th.
Led by veteran arts and entertainment attorneys, this program covers all the essential legal and business issues you need to know, plus, behind the scenes information as only these industry insiders can provide.
We're also pleased to welcome back Peter Rienecker, Esq., Vice President and Senior Counsel in Charge of Original Programming for Home Box Office. Mr. Rienecker will lead a conversation over lunch to consider issues in television and film with a focus on documentary and reality programming.
VLA members may attend the program at a discounted rate (as low as $50 for artists) for two days of intensive programming including lunch, networking opportunities and a wine and cheese reception.
Sessions include:
Ask the Lawyer Panels
The Essentials of Intellectual Property
Contract Basics
Running Your Arts Business
Special Considerations for Musicians
Special Considerations for Visual Artists
Special Considerations in Film/Video

This original program was developed by VLA with the support of the National Endowment for the Arts.

Sincerely,
Elena M. Paul, Esq.
