Legal Counsel Workshop is designed specifically to educate emerging artists about the business aspect of the industry. This program pairs entertainment lawyers with young artists who are on the brink of emerging or who have already debuted. The goal of this workshop is to inform participants of the legal aspects of the entertainment industry and to provide accurate insight of the business end of the music industry. Participants will be able to ask relevant questions and ascertain the primary focus of a contract beneficial for artists, as well as key terms to be aware of. By participating in this program, young artists will be able to gain a better prospective of their legal obligations and rights.
