On Tuesday, February 19 from 6:30-8, Tyler will be presenting an online workshop with NYFA (New York Foundation for the Arts) on Business Entities for Artists. The presenter, Lawyer Zak Shusterman, contributed to the legal chapters of The Profitable Artist (Allworth Press, 2018), which is NYFA’s great book on making money as an artist.
The workshop will be streamed into Tyler B-89 from 6:30 – 8 pm for students. Coffee, tea and cookies will be served; you’re welcome to bring a brown-bag dinner if you like. You will be able to ask questions as part of the workshop, although we have to ask as a group.
Workshop Description:
If you’re earning even part of your living as an artist, designer, or maker, you should consider whether forming a separate business entity is the right decision for you. This workshop will review the questions you need to ask yourself at the beginning of this decision-making process. Then, we’ll move on to discussing the most common business structures for artists, from remaining a sole proprietor to limited liability companies, the standard corporation types, and the new benefit corporation option. To help you determine which structure is best for your particular situation, we’ll review several important considerations, including the complexity and costs of formation, ongoing responsibilities, and tax treatment.
Presenter Zak Shusterman advises a range of entrepreneurs, creatives, and organizations in both the for-profit and non-profit sector at all stages of their development. His clients include individual artists and producers, arts councils, arts centers, and world-renowned entertainers. A twice-recognized “Rising Star” in the nonprofit sector, Shusterman regularly presents workshops for artists, entrepreneurs, and nonprofits. In addition to his legal practice, he helps run Bethany Arts Community, a large arts center in Westchester; produces a Moth-style storytelling series called “Pros(e) of Pie;” and experiments in woodworking and metalworking.

Peer education gives students an opportunity to promote well-being, cultivate community, elevate their voices, and be agents of change on our campus. Temple students receive influential messages from peer educators who facilitate wellness programs, participate in campus outreach, and support Wellness Resource Center initiatives.
Here’s what you need to know about becoming a Health Education Awareness Resource Team (HEART) Peer Educator:
Peers are nationally certified after taking SBS 2304, a 3-credit course held at the WRC on Wednesday evenings during the Fall and Spring semesters. Learn about mental well-being, alcohol and other drugs, sexual health, interpersonal violence, and other wellness topics that impact college students.
The course and peer meetings help students gain practical experience through several experiential learning hours and one office hour per week outside of class time. You’ll be given the opportunity to assist with event planning and implementation, campus outreach, and raising awareness on campus through resource tables.
Receive training in two established peer facilitated programs so you can facilitate important conversations with fellow Owls and student groups.
What are some characteristics of an effective HEART Peer Educator?
You consider yourself a team player
You are reliable and responsible
You have a willingness to speak in front of an audience or to develop public speaking skills
You are interested in health promotion and creating a healthier and happier campus community
You strive to be a non-judgmental role model (and role model does not mean perfect!)
What are some reasons to become a HEART peer educator?
You want to elevate your voice around important health and wellness topics impacting your friends and peers
You are exploring ways to enhance your resume with new and in-demand skills
You are interested in receiving training in wellness content areas, as well as public speaking and facilitation skills
You want to expand your personal and professional network and develop additional supportive relationships
The opportunities continue beyond successful completion of SBS 2304. HEART Peer Educators are offered multiple ways to stay engaged and create positive change:
Peer meetings on Wednesdays from 3:30 pm – 4:30 pm – this is an opportunity to learn more about trends in health promotion, celebrate successes with fellow HEART peers, and learn about campus events and resources.
Assist with the development of WRC programs, workshops, and events
Promote and participate in programs, events, and campus outreach opportunities
