Agreement version: 2026-08-18
These Brewery Artwalk Submission Terms of Service (the “Agreement”) govern the submission of artwork through the Brewery Artwalk website located at breweryartwalk.org (the “Website”), operated by the Brewery Artwalk Association or a successor entity (the “Operator”). By accessing, using, or submitting any artwork, photograph, illustration, design, or other creative work (each, a “Submission” and collectively, “Submissions”) through the Website, the person or entity making such submission identified below (the “Submitter”) agrees to be bound by this Agreement. The Website is operated by Operator to promote and operate the Brewery Artwalk and the Website.
The Brewery Artwalk.
The Operator hosts a platform through which submitters may upload Submissions for possible use in the Brewery Artwalk, an event and ongoing program showcasing art. Submissions uploaded to the Website may be displayed on the Website for public viewing and voting, and may be used by Operator, the Brewery Artist Collective, Carlson Industries, LLC, and any other entity that may participate in promoting the Brewery Artwalk (collectively with Operator, the “Artwalk Entities”) for promotional and marketing purposes across the internet and in all media, as further described below. Submitter desires to permit Operator and the Artwalk Entities to use the Submissions in the Brewery Artwalk.
License Grant.
By uploading, submitting, or otherwise providing any Submission through the Website, Submitter hereby grants to the Artwalk Entities a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable license to use, reproduce, copy, replicate, modify, edit, crop, reformat, create derivative works from, display, distribute, store, transmit and otherwise exploit the Submissions, in whole or in part (“Authorized Uses”), in any form or medium or format known or hereafter developed, in connection with (a) displaying the Submissions on the Website for public viewing, voting, and community engagement; (b) marketing, advertising, and promotional activities by any Artwalk Entity in connection with the Brewery Artwalk, whether in print, digital, social media, broadcast, or any other medium; (c) use on third-party websites, social media platforms, and across the internet to promote or publicize the Brewery Artwalk; (d) archival, quality assurance, and internal business purposes of the Artwalk Entities; and (e) any other lawful purpose in connection with the Brewery Artwalk. Submitter acknowledges and agrees that the Artwalk Entities may retain copies of all Submissions and that this license shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
Account Security.
If Submitter creates an account on the Website, Submitter is solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials, including any account username and password. Submitter accepts full responsibility for all activities that occur under their account, including any Submission uploads, voting activity, and communications with Operator and any of the Artwalk Entities. Any Submission uploaded or activity conducted through Submitter’s account shall be deemed authorized by Submitter and subject to all representations, warranties, and indemnification obligations set forth in this Agreement. Submitter agrees to notify the Operator immediately upon becoming aware of any unauthorized use of their account or any other breach of security.
