Hey! So for school, I have to come up with an idea for an "art grant" project. The reason that it's in quotes is because it's not actually a real art grant, but I want my project to be as accurate as possible (over-achiever alert!).
As some of you may know, an art grant is an idea that has something to do with culture that somehow benefits the community around it. I was pretty stuck for a while until I had an idea:
It will be like a pottery studio where people who make minimum wage or don't have jobs can make some sort of creation (a mug, a bowl, a figurine, a sculpture, etc.) in exchange for one meal. With every creation we would print out a tag with their picture and a paragraph-long message from every creator. We will give every creator 25% of the revenue for this art.
My main question: Is this legal? I'm rubbish with law and such, so I need to enlist the help of someone smarter than me. Thanks in advance!
My second question: Is 25% enough? I want to give the creators SOMETHING for the effort put into their creation, but on the other hand I want this project to be maintain-able (keep in mind that I have to buy clay, paint, varnish, install a kiln, buy bread and such, etc.).
