The European Citizens Action Service (ECAS) is a partner of the mobility pilot project Practics wich strives to provide tools for better information provision for cultural mobility. ECAS has just released “Most frequently asked questions by artists and answers about their European Citizens’ Rights”. Get aware of your rights as EU citizen-artist!

This publication builds on ECAS’ experience, on previous publications addressed to citizens and their doubts on the financing and rights deriving from the EU, and the examination of around 100 enquiries received by ECAS from “artists” between January 2007 and June 2010.

Each chapter tries to answer in detail the problems artists encounter in their daily life, by means of a questions and answer structure, and the help of some concrete examples taken from the most common enquiries received by artists. The themes discussed are:

EUROPEAN CITIZENSHIP

TRAVELLING IN THE UNION

RESIDENCE
