Artists are entrepreneurs. And like every entrepreneur, artists deserve access to clear information, strong networks and practical tools.
The Economic Justice and Small Business Clinic (EJSBC) at UNLV William S. Boyd School of Law, in partnership with the City of Las Vegas Department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs and the Nevada Arts Council (NAC), invites you to the launch of the Nevada Entrepreneurial Artist Toolkit — a resource developed in collaboration with community organizers and law students committed to advancing artist entrepreneurship and small business equity. Boyd Law EJSBC student attorneys will walk through the core sections of the toolkit.
This is not a lecture. This is a community conversation.
