In addition to insurance for artwork, as listed here, Public Liability insurance is essential when undertaking any workshops or art activities involving members of the public, be it in a community centre, an outdoor park or school. Without insurance cover the artist can, if a person becomes injured or equipment is broken, be held personally accountable.
If you are self-employed you can join small business organisations that offer free legal representation or you can take out legal cover from specialist insurance brokers.
[a-n]'s The a-n Artist subscription + AIR membership provides free limited £5m public liability insurance cover tailored to visual and applied artists and The AIR Artists' Insurance Policy provides low-cost options for studio, contents, artwork, exhibition or a personalised quote against specific needs.
