1. Issues in Provenance Research Symposium, Cleveland
Looks like an interesting free event if you are in Ohio.

A representative from each area will speak about issues relating to provenance within the context of his or her own experience.”

2. Rights and Relationships: Key Legal Issues for Artists, Workshop, NYC
What do you do if your work is copied or appropriated? Artists are victims of art crime, they should know the legal landscape of their field. This free workshop led by artist and arts lawyer Sergio Muñoz Sarmiento seems like a ‘must-attend’ for anyone creating art. The other free workshops offered seem interesting as well.
When: 14 October 2015
Where: Lower Manhattan Cultural Council Office, 125 Maiden Lane
