Accounting for Creatives pulls back the curtain a little bit on the financial side of freelance and creative work. You're a stellar artist or designer or photographer or illustrator, but how do you make an invoice or keep up with deductions to taxes? Designed for right-brained thinkers, this workshop translates essential accounting concepts into approachable, visual lessons that empower creators to take charge of their money with confidence. We're not trying to teach you how to be your own CPA (absolutely not), but understanding the money side helps you plan and avoid terrifying surprises. Hosted by Sarah Lawrence.


Key Takeaways:

  • Understand the basics of taxes, deductions, and profit-and-loss statements through creative, hands-on activities.
  • Learn how to set up systems for invoicing, tracking expenses, and separating business and personal finances.
  • Gain clarity on choosing business structures (sole proprietorship vs. LLC) and planning for quarterly taxes like a pro.
