Tax Information for Artists, Writers

January 11, 2010 by Tania Marien

The following information was forwarded by a reader. Here is information about a tax workshop as it was posted on the pasculture public email list at PasadenaCulture.net.


Tax Tips Specifically for Artists

This timely three-hour workshop provides important information for anyone who is self-employed, but is especially geared towards artists, writers, performers, and dancers. Topics to be covered include, but are not limited to: being an employee vs. being self-employed, having a Hobby vs. having a Business, how to keep records to protect yourself in case of an audit, the difference between expenses for employees an those for self-employed people, understanding self-employment taxes and taking advantage of various deductions including entertainment, research, automobile and other expenses unique to artists.

Everyone attending will be provided with a wealth of information to take with them, including some guidelines on how to keep good records and a listing of current websites that are resources for those in business for themselves. PLEASE NOTE: This class does not cover tax issues for non-profit organizations.

Stephen Benjamin, a CPA whose clients include actors, writers, artists and other people in the entertainment industry, will teach this class. Mr. Benjamin is also an entertainer in his own right and makes the workshop fun as well as informative. He even has prizes to give out to some lucky attendees!

Time: 6:30 – 9:30pm
Location: Japanese American Cultural and Community Center, 244 S. San Pedro Street, in Little Tokyo near Downtown Los Angeles
Cost: $35 (BOA / CCI members), $40 (Non-Member)
