FMC's Kristin Thomson on the mic
This coming week, FMC's Education Director Kristin Thomson is participating in a number of very cool events. If you're in DC or Philadelphia, or somewhere in between, consider checking these out:
Monday, June 9
Copyright for the Working Musician in a Digital Age
6:00 - 9:00 PM
Coral Street Arts House, 2446 Coral Street, Philadelphia, PA
Free
Join us for an informal discussion about copyright and musicians with two Philly-based musicians. Future of Music Coalition's Kristin Thomson (Tsunami/Simple Machines Records) and Marcy Rauer Wagman, entertainment attorney, CEO of MAD Dragon Records and Director of the Music Industry Program at Drexel University will help musicians better understand some of the mundane (as well as arcane) aspects of copyright law, and how they can impact today's musicians on a practical, daily level. This is a really exciting opportunity to hear two experts in the field speak on copyright, technology and music...for FREE. Bring your questions!
Organized by Jim Ayre of OASTEM! and Fern Knight.
