CAPIC was founded in 1978 as a national, not-for-profit association dedicated to safeguarding and promoting the rights and interests of photographers, illustrators and recently, digital artists, working in the communications industry. Starting as a single group in Toronto, CAPIC has grown to six chapters, spanning the country from Halifax to Vancouver.

As a member of CAPIC you are part of a strong network of professionals. CAPIC is THE reference for professional image creators in Canada and the business practices that result. Throughout the years, CAPIC has worked hard to improve the recognition of image creators in Canadian Copyright Law and to educate its members, partners and the public about Artists’ Rights. Thanks to these efforts, Canadians image creators now officially own the copyright to all of their work whether the photograph is commissioned or not. 

CAPIC continues it’s efforts to support image creators through the creation or resources such as fee schedules and business practice surveys which are designed as a necessary reference for any Illustrator or Photographer getting started in the Industry
