Lawfully Creative

Lawfully Creative is a series of intimate and honest conversations hosted by Annabelle Gauberti. Annabelle talks with artists, policy makers and performers – to hear their stories, what inspires their creations, what decisions changed their careers, and what relationships influenced their work.

Lawfully Creative also encompasses our Crefovi's daily updates, which are our reflections and comments on the latest news which impact the creative industries, as well as Crefovi's live webinars, which are thought leadership podcasts on legal issues in the creative industries.
