"Changes In Taxes"
By Paul Robinson
Enjoy socializing & networking 6:30-7PM
The meeting starts at 7PM
Wednesday, October 9th,
At the Civic Center
In the Bear Gallery



Dear Art League Members,

Even with the government shut down, I bet we don't get those days as a 'tax free' time! There are many changes in how individuals and businesses are being taxed, and artists are no exception. Paul Robinson, Robinson and Associates, will share some ideas on how to best weather the changes.

Please notice the location change for our monthly meetings. We are in the Bear Gallery. Come at 6:30 to socialize, network, and view the art.

What a great Art League meeting last night! It's so great to meet new artists and see old artist friends as well. A great big THANK YOU goes to Kim Krinke, who gave an inspiring program on The Creative Process. Join us next month, October 9th to welcome our guest speaker, Paul Robinson, of Robinson and Associates, as he presents "Tax Climate Change: Not good news! But better to find out now, rather than later." Paul specializes in taxes for artists. Don't miss it!

"Writing Skills"
By Amy Helmericks
Enjoy socializing & networking 6:30-7PM
The meeting starts at 7PM
Wednesday, April 10th,
At the Civic Center, in the Blue Room



Dear Art League Members,

Amy Helmericks [[email protected]] asked a valuable question. If artists (visual, dancers, actors, writers, etc.) have professional portraits done, why not have other aspects of business done professionally? A good question sometimes leads to creative responses. And Amy is now in a new line of business.

Amy is a writer. A large percentage of us visual artists find stringing two sentences together a daunting task. How many of you wait till the last moment to write an "Artist Statement"? This is after spending 100s of hours building the body of work. Yet, it reflects as greatly on the overall success of your show. I'm sure I'm not the only visual artist who wished I had paid more attention in English, rather than visualizing how to get the flower vase to look round and sitting on a table.

Amy is going to share some writing skill development tasks with us on Wednesday night. More importantly, she will be launching her new line of services. For a small fee you can have her write your Bio, Statement & Resume. Think how easy it will be to apply for a grant, or hand in the 'Bio' for the next joint show. Or, those with web sites, think about having a fun resume which develops curiosity in your art.

Hope to see you Wednesday night. Please contact me at [email protected] if you have questions.

Nikki Kinne
