Upcoming PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT Workshop for Artists
At the East End Arts School in Riverhead
ARTIST'S RIGHTS, CONTRACTS AND GALLERY RELATIONSHIPS
SATURDAY April 6, 12:00-2:30PM 
With Carol Steinberg, Esq.
If you are a visual artist, writer, filmmaker, performing artist, or other creative individual, this class can help you recognize and deal with legal issues. Can you use images in your artwork just because they are out there? Have you signed your rights away in a work for hire agreement? What do you need to know about the contracts you are signing? How do you deal with collaborations? This workshop will focus on basic artists' rights-copyright, fair use, artist-dealer relationships, contract basics, and collaborations. The purpose is to help you protect your creative assets, make money from them, protect their integrity, and keep from being sued. There will be lots of examples and plenty of time for Q&A.
Cost: $30 EEA members / $45 nonmembers

A Message from our friends at the Suffolk Theater...
The Historic Suffolk Theater is Open!!
After many years of hard work,  the Suffolk Theater in downtown Riverhead has finally re-opened. The theater first opened in 1933 with great fanfare, and now in 2013 ... eighty years later ... there's even more excitement as this beautiful art-deco cinema has been restored to a cabaret style performing arts center. The Suffolk Theater is on Main Street. And the beautiful electronic marquee lights up downtown Riverhead, serving as a beacon for first class entertainment.
There are 30 days of shows in March. Almost every night in March has something exciting and interesting and wonderful to experience. This is nightclub style theater.
For the complete schedule of concerts, movies, musical and theatrical events check out suffolktheater.com.
