VOLUNTEER LAWYERS FOR THE ARTS
Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts (VLA) is the leading legal aid and education organization dedicated to New York artists and its arts and cultural organizations. VLA strives to protect the artistic community’s livelihoods, businesses, and creative works through access to dedicated legal representation and focused education programs.
LEGAL ASSISTANCE
VLA frees artists of all disciplines from the financial burdens and divided focus associated with the legal realities of being independent business people, ensuring that they can concentrate on their creative pursuits.
CLASSES
While VLA’s courses are no substitute for assistance from one of our volunteer attorneys, artists can learn what to do to protect your intellectual property and business interests.
SUPPORT
Each year, VLA facilitates more than $24 million of free legal services for artists of all disciplines across New York State. There are many ways you can support our mission.
