This intellectual-property masterclass focuses on the basics of copyright protection, licensing, and enforcement in Australia. Led by freelance curator and lawyer Alana Kushnir, it has been designed for artists and arts workers in directorial, administrative, curatorial, programming, and communications roles. Art-related legislation and court judgments will be discussed, as well as hypothetical scenarios that arts organisations may face daily. Bring your questions and ensure that your organisation is up-to-date with current legal requirements.
