Leaving Your Legacy
SATURDAY 25 JUNE, 9.30 AM–3.30PM AEST | SITEWORKS, BRUNSWICK
The Leaving Your Legacy forum is a one day program of presentations and accompanying Advice Hub, designed to take you through the complexities of estate planning for artists.
Leading industry specialists will present comprehensive information on tax, law, archiving and conservation.
The program of presentations will introduce complex terrain in a straightforward fashion. We aim to support and guide participants to define their own legacy and lessen the burden for those who will be left to manage and care for it. It provides a supportive platform to address the barriers and issues specific to women artists.
This forum is accompanied by a forthcoming Artists’ Workbook and a special issue of the Women’s Art Register Bulletin magazine. These multiple formats will assist participants in working together with their family and/or representatives, to find their Champions and leave a successful creative legacy.
