Federal Tax Law for Artists

Depreciation, capital gains, deductions, W-2s, 1099s! Having trouble keeping track of it all? Neil Sussman's popular tax workshop is back to guide artists and their attorneys through yet another season of gains, losses, formulas and forms. Learn all the basics you need, plus special tips and what's new for your 2014 tax return. Designed specifically to address the arts and entertainment issues, topics to be covered will include:

- What deductions can be claimed
- What tax forms to use and how to fill them out
- How to keep business and tax records in an organized manner
- How to minimize the chances of getting audited

"All the information at an affordable price," and "I knew next to nothing about taxes before this workshop; now I have some great info" are just two of the many favorable comments we received from previous workshops.
