Webinar: Best Practice Guidance for Using Indigenous Artwork

So you want to use an Australian Indigenous artwork or image but aren’t sure where to start? While you may have the best intentions, you could be unknowingly supporting ‘fake’ Indigenous art or breaching Indigenous cultural and intellectual property rights.

At this webinar, intellectual property specialists from HopgoodGanim Lawyers and Parallax Legal will provide practical guidance for using Indigenous artwork to help protect your organisation and the intellectual property of Indigenous artists. The webinar will mark the launch of their co-created ‘Best Practice Guidance for using Indigenous Artwork in a Corporate or Community Publication’, developed in collaboration with First Nations design agency Humanize Media.

Please join us for this free webinar to better understand how to appropriately use Indigenous art and demonstrate greater respect toward Indigenous artists.
