Sanders receives pro bono award
Sanders has helped low-income artists, including a local Kashmiri folk music nonprofit whose work was used without permission in a Bollywood movie and artists who were trying to get paid or get their work returned. She has given many talks and workshops on legal issues important to artists, particularly copyright concerns. The former textile artist also serves on the boards of the Baltimore School for the Arts, the Baltimore chapter of the American Advertising Federation and the Black Cherry Puppet Theater.
