BU College of Fine Arts student artists are invited to a virtual workshop led by BU alum, artist, and tax expert Hannah Cole! This workshop is an empowering, jargon-free session that leaves you feeling seen, and knowing how to handle your freelance/small business taxes as artists and creatives.

Hannah Cole (CFA'05) will discuss the basic tax equation, self-employment tax and the estimated quarterly tax system, audit concerns for the creative person, and other tax issues specifically relevant to creatives, makers, and freelancers, followed by a question-and-answer period. Hannah Cole is the founder of Sunlight Tax, and she specializes in friendly, informative tax education for creatives, artists, and people who feel like the black sheep of the business world. Her mission is to empower creative people to set up for long-term success and take control of the financial side of their careers through her program, Money Bootcamp. She is also the host of the Sunlight podcast, where she talks about taxes, money, and careers for self-employed people who have a big vision for changing the world with their work.

Hannah Cole is a tax expert who specializes in working with creative businesses and artists. A long-time working artist with a high-level exhibition history, and a tax and money columnist for the art blog Hyperallergic, the financial challenges of freelancers and small creative businesses are both relevant and personal to Hannah.
