By submitting an application to become a part of the Illinois Performing Artist Index, you agree to the following:
- The images and video you submitted are your own, and if copyrighted, you own the copyright.
- Your work will be visible within your profile. The Illinois Arts Council and the Illinois Presenters Network will take steps to prevent downloads of your work, but cannot guarantee that site visitors won’t find a way to download your pictures. We do not offer watermarking, but you are free to watermark your images before uploading them. We recommend that you digitally crop your images by 20-100px around the edges so that if someone tries to claim ownership of one of your pieces of artwork, you will be able to demonstrate proof of ownership by showing the full, un-cropped piece.
- You are not guaranteed membership in the Illinois Performing Artist Index. We review all applications by hand and will make every effort to respond in a timely fashion.
- Membership in the Illinois Performing Artist Index does not guarantee you will be hired for performance. Our customers will make up their own minds, so be sure to share your best assets!
- Artists will be listed in random order on our search page. Every time a visitor comes to this page, the order will be re-randomized. Please do not label yourself as ‘AAA’ to try to get to the front of the index.
- At this time, We do not handle transactions between artists and customers. The member artist must handle all transactions.
