Central Coast Music & Arts (CCMA) will partner with The Savoy Bar and Music to present a Mix & Master event on June 17.
The monthly events focus on professional development for creatives across all platforms.
Each month sees a session on a key topic designed to help artists in their creative career.
These sessions include expert insights, practical tips, and real-world advice from industry professionals, followed by a short networking opportunity for attendees to connect with fellow creatives.
Whether you’re a musician, visual artist, writer, dancer, or part of any other creative field, these monthly sessions will provide valuable tools, inspiration, and professional growth.
Expand your network and become part of the thriving creative community on the Central Coast.
This month’s session will be Money Matters: Financial Skills for Creatives presented by Mark Bigeni from Fruition Accountants & Advisors.
Navigating the world of finances can be overwhelming, especially when you’re focused on creating, performing or producing.
Whether you’re a solo artist, part of a band, or freelancing across various creative projects, understanding the financial basics is essential for achieving sustainability and success.
The practical, one-hour professional development workshop has been designed specifically for the arts community.
It will cover such topics as: how to set up an ABN (as an individual or as a group); invoicing basics; what you can claim at tax time; and how to keep on top of your income and expenses throughout the year.
There will also be tools and tips for staying organised and demystifying the tax return process for artists, as well as a guide on what deductions creatives can legitimately claim.
Stick around after the workshop for Open Mic from 7.30pm (all levels of experience welcome).
The session will take place from 5.45pm-7.30pm on Tuesday, June 17, at The Savoy, 2/391 The Entrance Rd, Long Jetty.
