A free virtual workshop from OVLA, the Oregon Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts, covering the tax fundamentals that independent creative professionals most often get wrong. The session walks through tracking income across multiple clients and platforms, which expenses are actually deductible for a creative practice, how self-employment tax works and what it means for quarterly planning, and the recordkeeping habits that keep all of it manageable, plus strategies for staying organized year-round instead of scrambling in April. It is built for both newly self-employed creatives and established practitioners who have been improvising their bookkeeping for years. Registration is through oregonvla.org. Note that sessions are recorded and may be posted online, and registering constitutes consent to https://www.aigapdx.org/events/taxes-creatives

This is a virtual event hosted via Microsoft Teams
