This hour-long seminar will help artists understand the basics of copyright, including what is and is not copyright, how that can apply to their work, and how to enforce when their copyright has been infringed. Lastly, we touch upon the discussion between copyright and AI.

This workshop is ideal for artists, creatives, and cultural workers. Open to all artists and creators across all mediums – films, literature, visual art, music, etc.

We’ll also have time set aside for schmoozing so you can connect with fellow Jewish creatives.

Light refreshments will be served. Kashrut observed.

Registration required – please click here.

This workshop will be recorded and a copy of the recording will be made available for a limited time.

 

Supported by the Kultura Collective, UJA Federation of Greater Toronto, the Miles Nadal JCC, CANVAS, and the Azrieli Foundation.
