The Lunchbox: Business and Taxes for Artists

On the surface, art and business seem entirely at odds..

Art, one might suggest, is about chaos, but business is about order.

But the world is made up of both parts, and sometimes it’s necessary to mix them.

My guests today are Gary Belding (independent accountant/consultant) and Joss Richer (ArtsNB). They have a new workshop coming up Wednesday, 4 February 2015 from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM at the Charlotte Street Arts Centre. The workshop is aimed at members of the arts community who need to learn more about treating their work like a business, and how to file and claim taxes. We talked about the need to take it seriously, and the kinds of things that will be discussed in the workshop.

You can register for the workshop at EventBrite.
