Let's talk about Tax and Accounting for Artists and Creatives!
A conversation with Anna Scott, here's what she has to say:
I know that you started your work as an artist because you love art and to create and not because you love admin, accounting and tax. So I'd like to give you the low down on some basics that are useful to know about accounting and tax. You might already have questions you need answered, you might not know what you don't know. Both of those places are fine, and you might be somewhere in between. So I would love you to join Angela and I for an informal conversation over zoom in the new year.Who am I? I'm Anna Scott, a chartered accountant and silver Xero partner. I have been in private practice for 10 years and prior to that worked for Deloitte in Auckland and Wellington. I have been an accountant for almost 20 years. All that time dealing with small and medium sized businesses and individuals. Sole traders just like you. So we can chat about basic record keeping - how software like xero can help you, what IRD needs, when do you need to register for GST (and what does that mean), what to keep for funders.What is a deductible expense and what does that even mean? When do you start paying tax? And any other questions you might have. So please get the most out of this session and send your questions (no question is silly) through to Angela and that way I can do my homework and bring you all the answers.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.

Whangarei Film Society - screenings for Thursday May 23rd

Geoff from Central Whangarei

Good People

On Thursday, the 23rd May at 6pm, WFS will be screening the doco on the NZ modernist artist, Frances Hodgkins in Anything But A Still Life.

Our 8pm screening will be the Oscar winning film (Best International Picture), Riceboy Sleeps.

FRANCES HODGKINS: ANYTHING BUT A STILL LIFE
NZ, 2023, Documentary, 90 mins

This documentary explores the life and art of celebrated New Zealand painter, Frances Hodgkins.

From her time in art school in London in the early 1900s, when one of her paintings became the first work by a New Zealander to be hung at the Royal Academy of Arts, to her time in Paris where she taught at Colarossi's academy as the first woman instructor.

It was during her time in France that Hodgkins was influenced by the styles of Matisse and Derain but quickly developed her own highly personal style, which embraced modernist hallmarks.

Over the decades, Hodgkins work became highly respected, as she worked alongside artists including Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson and Henry Moore.

At the peak of her career, before returning to NZ, Hodgkins was considered a key figure in British Modernism and a role model for women artists everywhere.

Showing at Forum North, 7 Rust Ave Whangarei on Thursday 23rd May at 6pm and TUESDAY (not Thursday) 28th May at 8pm.

Tickets: Door sales only. $10 WFS members. $15 Non members.
