Like myself, I know many other artists have struggled with finding the resources and help that we so need to take our art or crafting business to the next level. So, here are a few resources to check out if you didn't already know.
PVLA -
The Philadelphia Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts is an amazing source that provides artists with FREE legal help and advice. They hold workshops all year long on different legal obstacles that artists face, including licensing, copyrights, and contracts.
CFEVA -
The Center for Emerging Visual Artist acts as a gateway to artist resources. They offer several grants and fellowships a year as well as workshops and one-on-ones for artist to better direct their career goals.
Temple SBDC -
The Temple University Small Business Development Center offers business coaching, legal advice, marketing, and workshops to assist any small business succeed. They even have online classes/workshops for those artists who need help, but have virtually no time.
If you know of other artists resources in your area please comment with a link to their website!
