Enter to Win an iPad Mini by Completing a Survey in Support of the Formation of Canada’s First-Ever National Network of Legal Clinics for the Arts!

In an effort to develop an essential national network of federally funded legal services for artists across Canada, we are conducting an important Needs Assessment Survey. The results will give a fulsome picture of artists’ needs from coast-to-coast and will be presented to the Canada Council of the Arts in April 2020. The deadline to complete the survey by February 21, 2020. Your responses will remain anonymous.

This survey will take approximately 10 to 15 minutes to complete and at its end you may elect to enter into an exclusive draw to win an iPad Mini!

There are currently five legal clinics for the arts across Canada who work tenaciously to fund their efforts and service their local artists. A National Network of Legal Clinics for the Arts will unify and coordinate better access to free legal resources, services and information, empowering artists nationwide.

In August 2019, representatives from the individual legal clinics for the arts met with the Canada Council for the Arts and Canadian Heritage to relay the very real legal needs of the arts sector across this country.

The Canada Council for the Arts committed to funding this Needs Assessment Survey for ASOs and artists, which – WITH YOUR HELP – will lead to the  development of a Canada’s first-ever National Network for Legal Clinics for the Arts.
