Alisha Tonsic (NET/Sojourn Theatre)
w/ special presentation by local guest Sean LaRocca (ArtSpot Productions)

Designed to empower artists working in ensembles and other small arts organizations, this participatory workshop increases attendees' comfort, confidence, comprehension, and competency levels by sharing the basic tools needed to manage the financial "business" of artmaking.

It provides an entry-level, introductory overview of the financial components involved in operating an arts organization, including:

-- planning (chart of accounts, budgeting, cash flow projections);

-- day-to-day fiscal management (receivables, payables, deposits, bookkeeping, bank reconciliation, financial controls and policies);

-- and reporting (evaluation and review tools for staff/company members, boards, and external stakeholders i.e. funder/grant reports or 990s, and how to use these tools internally to guide your decision making).

Participants receive in-class handouts, as well as a take-home USB drive that includes a number of templates, forms, and informational articles that they can put to immediate use with their companies.
