Calling all artists and visual arts workers!
DACS and the Creative Rights in AI Coalition are calling on the Government to protect rightsholders in the creative sector by enforcing the UK’s existing copyright regime to help make sure that creators and artists are protected, fairly paid, and credited.
You can help the campaign by writing to your MP to ask them to protect UK copyright law and protect creative rights.

🚨New report reveals the shocking extent of failing earnings for visual artists in the UK🚨
The report, by @copyrightcentre, @UofGlasgow, commissioned by DACS, follows a national survey of over 1,200 visual artists, photographers, and illustrators.
Key findings:
▶ Median income for visual artists is £12,500 a year, a 47% decrease since 2010
▶ Significant disparities in pay across demographics, with women and other genders earning 40% less than men and disabled artists earning a median of just £3,750
▶ Over 80% of artists describe their earnings as ‘unstable’ or ‘very unstable’
