MAY WORKSHOP WITH ALICIA INEZ GUZMÁN: “Getting Image Rights Right”

May 22, 6 P.M., at La Montanita Co-op. Cost: $15 for NMBA members, $25 for nonmembers.

For anyone interested in publishing reviews, art essays, or artist books, navigating how to find and publish images from emerging and established artists can be a challenge. In this workshop, Alicia will talk about her experiences as an arts writer dealing with artists’ estates, copyright laws, and requests for images. She’ll offer a few anecdotes about the difficulties she’s met as well as a few tips for writers embarking on the process.
