One of our committee members is behind Creative Practice, Shutter Room Members are welcome to attend selected funded workshops, the next one is:
Accounting and tax for artists and creatives with chartered accountant Anna Scott
Zoom 9 February 11am - 1230pm

Tickets are free but limited to 20 people
This will be a short 101 Accounting basics session, the stuff we need to know, followed by a Q & A. So, sign up via our Humanitix event, here:
events.humanitix.com......
or send Linette an email to register, linette.creativepractice@gmail.com send us your questions and make the most of this funded chat with an accountant.

Let's talk about Tax and Accounting for Artists and Creatives!
A conversation with Anna Scott, here's what she has to say:
I know that you started your work as an artist because you love art and to create and not because you love admin, accounting and tax. So I'd like to give you the low down on some basics that are useful to know about accounting and tax. You might already have questions you need answered, you might not know what you don't know. Both of those places are fine, and you might be somewhere in between. So I would love you to join Angela and I for an informal conversation over zoom in the new year.Who am I? I'm Anna Scott, a chartered accountant and silver Xero partner. I have been in private practice for 10 years and prior to that worked for Deloitte in Auckland and Wellington. I have been an accountant for almost 20 years. All that time dealing with small and medium sized businesses and individuals. Sole traders just like you. So we can chat about basic record keeping - how software like xero can help you, what IRD needs, when do you need to register for GST (and what does that mean), what to keep for funders.What is a deductible expense and what does that even mean? When do you start paying tax? And any other questions you might have. So please get the most out of this session and send your questions (no question is silly) through to Angela and that way I can do my homework and bring you all the answers.
