The Artists in the Black (AITB) program at the Arts Law Centre of Australia has created a series of comics to address legal issues that relate to Indigenous artists and communities. You can view the comics online or download a PDF to print.
The comics help educate you about your rights to moral, intellectual property and copyright ownership of your artwork and contracts you might have with other parties.
Note: Please be patient when downloading the PDFs for print as they are quite large in size.
