The Public Domain. 
Sure, you've heard of it: The promise of thousands of beautiful, copyright free images to use at your every whim and desire. Like most other tall-tales it seems too good to be true. Where do all of these images exist? How can you trust that it's really free? How do you protect yourself from legal issues along the way? In this 1-day workshop, you will learn about quality resources to find images, text, music, and even videos. Find out the difference between The Public Domain and Creative Commons. 
Come see what treasures you can find!
