The Freedman Foundation Travelling Scholarship for Emerging Artists competition

Arts Law maintains an ongoing watch advocating fair and transparent contractual terms for competitions and prizes and is highly critical of terms which unnecessarily deprive artists of rights in their own work.  Arts Law often contacts competition organisers urging them to amend their terms and conditions to be fairer to entrants, especially where copyright and moral rights are affected.

The competitions are rated based on a review of the terms and conditions which relate to the entrant’s copyright and moral rights. Read more about the rating system here.

By accepting the terms and conditions of a competition, artists should be aware that they are entering a legally binding contract. For more information on competition conditions see our free information sheet here.

We also invite competition organisers to contact Arts Law for best practice assistance on making their terms and conditions fairer for artists.

The Freedman Foundation Travelling Scholarship for Emerging Artists competition received 5 / 5 stars for fairness to artists. CONGRATULATIONS is again in order for the National Association for the Visual Arts (NAVA), receiving an incredible 5 / 5 stars for their terms and conditions for The Freedman Foundation Travelling Scholarship for Emerging Artists competition.  WELL DONE!
