Creatives and Artists should be aware that the state of Colorado is committed to safeguarding their rights and intellectual property via legal protections. This year, Gov. Jared Polis signed Senate Bill 26-133, making Colorado the first state to introduce Artist Corporations (A-Corps), a new type of limited liability company that will give artists more creative control and legal protections in their businesses, demonstrating the value of artists and creative industries in the state.

“It is important for artists to take themselves seriously as professionals and business owners, and this kind of legislation helps the rest of the world get up to speed and value our artists in the same way,” Meredith Badler, deputy director of Colorado Business Committee for the Arts, said in an A-Corps information session attended by around 200 artists, filmmakers, thespians, musicians, arts advocates and attorneys on Sept. 2.

The idea for A-Corps was introduced during an April 2025 TED Talk by Yancey Strickler, a musician, writer and co-founder of Kickstarter, after hearing feedback from artists about challenges in accessing capital, collaborating and managing day-to-day duties in their businesses. If you are a Colorado artist interested in the protections an A-Corp can provide for you, reach out to us to learn more!

Labor Day is not just a day of rest and backyard barbecues. Labor Day became a national holiday in 1894, following a historic strike in the railway industry, with these essential workers demanding better treatment. President Grover Cleveland signed a law making Labor Day an official holiday, in a move to the calm the country during continued labor discontent. Then on July 4th, Cleveland sent 10,000 federal troops to Chicago to brutally end the strike: 13 workers were killed and 53 seriously injured. More than 30 were killed throughout that unrest. The strike failed to earn railway workers their demands, but the holiday remained. Labor Day's history is worth remembering for the dedication and organization of earlier generations gave us many of the workplace protections we have today.

Today we lost a pioneering icon in the fight for equality and justice. Gloria Steinem's life and work transformed American society and law in ways young people may not fathom, creating changes we take for granted in the last half century. From her championing the Equal Right Amendment, to changing the laws that denied women credit and bank accounts in their own names, to her continued fight for reproductive rights, Gloria was a tireless advocate for justice and rights for all. She not only challenged societal norms in her lifetime, but her legacy will empower coming generations to think critically about the structures of gender, control and privilege. Rest in Power.

63 years ago today, Dr. Martin Luther King delivered his famous "I have a Dream" speech at the March on Washington. We still celebrate the dream. Dr. King's words endure with clarity and conviction to the plight of Black Americans and all that is sacred in American political culture, from the founding to the present day. “We can never be satisfied as long as our children are stripped of their selfhood and robbed of their dignity by signs stating ‘for whites only’. We will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream." We honor the legacy of Dr. King and all fighters for justice.
