California artists win resale royalties law model
California's new resale royalty law for living visual artists draws mixed reviews as it targets sales over 1000 dollars with a 5 percent royal to the creator. The measure, backed by Artists Liberation, applies globally to California residents and seeks funds through the California Arts Council if the artist cannot be located. Critics say royalties are often evaded and the art market undervalues creators, while advocates argue this corrects exploitation by galleries and collectors. The law took effect in January with few royalties paid and legal challenges underway. A Joliet Junior College planetarium show Constellations of Summer is set for June 21 at 7:30 p.m. with free admission and early seating advised.

Mount Carmel tills garden plots free for residents
Mount Carmel Illinois tenants grow vegetables as a hedge against inflation. The city tills 230 plots free for residents, a program started five years ago by Mayor Tommy Stroup. Plants arrive from Wabash Area Development Inc. under federal funding. Stroup notes he avoids gardening costs by relying on donated plants and city support.
