Financial Matters for Artists with Gaby Smith

Cost:

This online training session on finance led by Gaby Smith aims to support artists of all artistic disciplines who are registered as self-employed with Revenue or who are new to self-employment.

The practical session will look at the benefits of being registered as self-employed, how different income is treated in your tax return, how to record income and expenditure, what are allowable expenses, the Artists Tax Exemption, Income Tax, USC, PRSI and other issues in response to participant questions. Gaby will also look at sample spreadsheets for recording income and expenditure from your practice.

The session is the first of two and it is recommended for a full understanding and continuity that you attend both sessions if feasibly possible. The second session, A Walk Through ROS Online for Artist’s is scheduled for Wednesday September 24th.

He was also chairman of the boards of the Dublin International Film Festival and Opera Theatre Company, and was inaugural chairman of Irish National Opera.
