Last summer, I entered ’s 88th Regional Exhibition of Art & Craft juried by artist, linguist, and educator Gabriel Sosa.

I was truly floored when my piece, Word House, made from an old pocket dictionary, took home the prize for sculpture. What a surprise and an honor!

🏆 TAX TIP: Artists, prizes are considered income! If you are awarded a prize that is more than $600, you should be issued a 1099 MISC should be issued by the awarding organization.

Several months ago, my husband, , and I both enrolled in Studio Art Classes at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

Chris is taking “Watercolor” and I’m taking “Drawing Foundations”, where I’ve been learning shading techniques, perspective, proportions of the figure, and drapery.

🎨 TAX TIP: Artists, did you know that if you’re taking classes to learn or refine your artistic skills, those classes may be a deductible expense on your taxes?

Did you receive a grant from the Worcester Arts Council, Mass Cultural Council, City of Worcester, Greater Worcester Community Foundation, etc., etc., etc.?

Guess what… that grant is likely taxable.

The entity that awarded you a grant should issue you a 1099 including the grant award amount, and you’ll need to claim that when you file your taxes.

To find out more about artist grants and their tax implications, join one of my upcoming Taxes for Artists Workshops.

These workshops are totally free for you to attend… thanks to a grant I received myself from the Worcester Arts Council! 🙂

As a member of ArtsWorcester myself, I have valued the opportunities to connect with local artists and creatives through events and openings in their beautiful galleries in the Printers Building.

This pic captured by Nathan Fiske Photography is from ArtsWorcester’s January Reception, where we gathered to support the 60 collaborators in “Fusion,” as well as “Shoebox” artists Melody Fortier, Mari Saxon, Karin Cloutier, and Morgan Tartakoff.

Did you know artists can deduct the professional dues associated with their work as an artist, like a membership at ArtsWorcester, on their taxes?

You can join any one of my upcoming free, 1-hour Taxes for Artists Workshops to learn more!💙
