Rights, Royalties and Funding: Free Workshop at Iva Festival 09

The Australasian Performing Art Association (APRA/AMCOS) and Creative New Zealand will host an evening of information for Pacific artists and musicians based in Christchurch and Canterbury about performing rights, royalties and funding. Petrina George and Tarisi Vunidilo will also speak about their respective organisations and how they work to serve the interests of Pacific artists. This is an opportunity not to be missed and will take place on Wednesday 4 February at Christchurch’s Dux de Lux from 6 pm onwards. The workshop will be followed by a performance of original tunes and some classic hits by local reggae band Niu Seila. For more details, visit the Pacific Underground Website.
