She specializes in personal and small business income tax and non-profit reporting. She has seen a variety of artist clients over the years\, from those who dabble in the arts to those who support themselves primarily with their art. As a former teacher\, she is interested in helping others understand their business finances and taxation\, to enable them to make better business decisions and to decrease the anxiety that often attends tax issues. \n  \n  \nThis free informational session will focus on an overview on advice and tips for artists including: \n1) What is income?\n2) What is deductible?\n3) Should I use a home office?\n4) How do I track things?\nDuring this presentation attendees are welcomed to ask questions\, and discuss their experiences\, tips and ideas with the group.

The program explores the intersection of arts and culture\, downtown revitalization\, and historic preservation in eleven Minnesota Main Street communities over a four year period. \nMinnesota Main Street is an economic development program of PAM that uses a historic preservation based strategy to revitalize downtown districts in Greater Minnesota communities. The program works with communities long-term and provides training and resources\, including a Main Street Project Fund; to help community members revitalize their downtown. \nSpringboard for the Arts is a national leader in creative community development. Their approach is rooted in the principles of community organizing and focuses on a “lots of little” strategy that surfaces unrecognized leaders in communities\, builds public narratives from a multiplicity of perspectives and voices; and creates low-risk opportunities for collaboration. This equity-based model centers on the lives and experiences of the people in and of the place; values the relationships\, partnerships\, and creative capacity that artists and communities build together; and aims to build power and agency for individuals\, neighborhoods and communities. \nAbout the Northfield Downtown Development Corporation \nThe Northfield Downtown Development Corporation (NDDC) is a nonprofit organization founded in 2000 to support\, strengthen\, and grow Northfield’s unique downtown district. It is made up of business owners\, buildings owners\, and engaged residents who value the role downtown plays in Northfield’s vibrancy. \nNorthfield\, Minnesota\, is a picturesque river town with a walkable downtown district along the scenic Cannon River. Northfield is home to St Olaf and Carleton Colleges\, and so is one of the upper Midwest’s best college towns. It is home to historic buildings\, a swirl of art and cultural activities\, state-of-the-art businesses\, a rich offering of hotels and restaurants\, and a sophisticated retail environment. \nThe program will help the NDDC to sustain a vibrant downtown by providing art and creative placemaking experiences that draw people to shop\, dine and connect in Downtown Northfield; enhancing the downtown’s aesthetics through the creativity of our local artists; and utilizing the arts as a springboard for improving diversity and inclusiveness in Downtown Northfield across all cultures. As the Designated MN Main Street organization\, the NDDC will coordinate the Artists on Main Street program in collaboration with the City of Northfield’s Arts & Culture Commission and the Northfield Arts Guild.

SUMMARY:411: Davina and The Vagabonds
DESCRIPTION:  \nSaturday\, January 12\, 2019 at 7:30 pm\n$25.00\nVenue:  Armory Square\n519 Division Street S.\, Northfield\, MN \nwith opening act:  Laura Caviani Trio\nListen to Laura’s 1/4/19 interview with ArtZany!  \nTHIS CONCERT IS SOLD OUT. \nTHANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT.\nFeaturing\nDavina Lozier – piano & vocals\nZack Lozier – trumpet & vocals\nSteve Rogness – trombone & vocals\nGeorge Marich/ Andrew “Dizzy” Gillespie – alternating drummers\nAndrew Foreman/Chris Bates/Liz Draper/Keith Yanes – alternating upright bass player \nAbout Davina and The Vagabonds\nSince exploding onto the scene in 2005\, Davina and the Vagabonds have grown from a down-and-dirty blues band into one of the most exciting acoustic ensembles on the international stage. This high-energy quintet has established itself with a stellar live show\, a professional look\, and good old-fashioned hard work.  In recent years they have performed in 45 states\, 2 Canadian provinces and 12 European countries. \nWith influences ranging from Fats Domino and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band to Aretha Franklin and Tom Waits\, the band draws from the last 100 years of American music\, and is converting audiences one show at a time. So much more than just a blues act\, DATV’s shows are filled with New Orleans charm\, Memphis soul swagger\, dark theatrical moments that evoke Kurt Weill\, and tender gospel passages. Davina’s voice and stage presence defy category in a different way. Davina has been compared to Etta James\, Amy Winehouse\, Janis Joplin\, Billie Holiday and Betty Boop\, but comparisons don’t suffice. Sowers is a true original. \nFor several years the band has been on the road more than they are home in the Twin Cities\, but when they are home\, they can be found at the Dakota! One of the keys to Davina’s success is the band’s irresistible live show; when the idea for a live record was presented\, the Dakota became the obvious choice to do it at. Davina and the Vagabonds’ latest record\, Nicollet and 10th\, was recorded over two nights in early 2015 here at the Dakota. Like its predecessors\, 2014’s Sunshine and 2011’s Black Cloud\, Nicollet and 10th is the latest chapter in Davina and the Vagabonds’ New Spin on an Old Sound mission! \nWhat Other People Have Been Saying… \n“She purrs and growls\, whispers and wails. Sweet and seductive one moment\, she’s in your face the next\, and then she makes you laugh. Her voice is a complex\, expressive\, flexible instrument made of sugar and grit.” – Pamela Espeland\, MinnPost \n“Davina Sowers is a one-of-a-kind performer whose singing… has a sassiness bearing some comparison to that of heart-thumping blues queens Ma Rainey and Ida Cox.” – Downbeat \n“There is a timeless quality about this band that sets them apart from the masses but\, perhaps more than anything else\, there is an honesty here that is refreshing beyond belief. This band loves what they do and they do it well.” – Bill Wilson\, Reflections in Blue \n“Two things remain consistent at all her shows though: her throaty but cushiony voice\, which has a sort of hard-mattress comfort to it that’s part Bonnie Raitt\, part Etta James and a little Amy Winehouse; and her band’s rollicking New Orleans flavor\, driven home by dueling horn players and a bayou-thick standup bass.” -Chris Riemenschneider\, Star Tribune \n“Davina Sowers’ classically trained right fingers shimmy down the piano keys and meet up with an insistent boogie-woogie bass. Then she reveals her other musical talent: a sassy\, salty\, sweet voice that’s childlike at the top\, husky at the bottom.”– NPR / Marc Silver 2011 “Song of The Day” Choice song  LipstickandChrome \n\n\n\n\n2018-19 411 Concert Series sponsors:\n\n\n\nConcert Sponsor:\n \n\nAdditional support by our Media Sponsor\,\nour Lodging Sponsor and our Beverage Sponsors\n

SUMMARY:Give to the Max Day!
DESCRIPTION:Thank you for your support of the Northfield Arts Guild!  Please consider a gift TODAY!\n \n10 Reasons to Support the Arts from www.AmericansfortheArts.org\n1. Arts promote true prosperity. The arts are fundamental to our humanity. They ennoble and inspire us— fostering creativity\, goodness\, and beauty. The arts help us express our values\, build bridges between cultures\, and bring us together regardless of ethnicity\, religion\, or age. When times are tough\, art is salve for the ache.\n2. Arts improve academic performance. Students with an education rich in the arts have higher GPAs and standardized test scores\, and lower drop-out rates—benefits reaped by students regardless of socio-economic status. Students with 4 years of arts or music in high school average 100 points better on their SAT scores than students with just one-half year of arts or music.\n3. Arts strengthen the economy. The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis reports that the arts and culture sector represents 3.25 percent of the nation’s GDP—a larger share of the economy than tourism and agriculture. The nonprofit arts industry alone generates $135 billion in economic activity annually (spending by organizations and their audiences) that supports 4.1 million jobs and generates $22.3 billion in government revenue.\n4. Arts are good for local merchants. Attendees at nonprofit arts events spend $24.60 per person\, per event\, beyond the cost of admission on items such as meals\, parking\, and babysitters. Attendees who live outside the county in which the arts event takes place spend twice as much as their local counterparts ($39.96 vs. $17.42)—valuable revenue for local businesses and the community.\n5. Arts drive tourism. Arts travelers are ideal tourists\, staying longer and spending more to seek out authentic cultural experiences. The U.S. Department of Commerce reports that the percentage of international travelers including museum visits on their trip has grown steadily since 2003 (18 to 24 percent). The share attending concerts and theater performances has grown from 14 to 17 percent since 2003.\n6. Arts are an export industry. U.S. exports of arts goods (e.g.\, movies\, paintings\, jewelry) grew to $72 billion in 2011\, while imports were just $25 billion—a $47 billion arts trade surplus.\n7. Arts spark creativity and innovation. The Conference Board reports that creativity is among the top 5 applied skills sought by business leaders—with 72 percent saying creativity is of high importance when hiring. The biggest creativity indicator? A college arts degree. Their Ready to Innovate report concludes\, “The arts—music\, creative writing\, drawing\, dance—provide skills sought by employers of the 3rd millennium.” Nobel laureates in the sciences are 17 times more likely to be actively engaged in the arts than average scientists.\n8. Arts have social impact. University of Pennsylvania researchers have demonstrated that a high concentration of the arts in a city leads to higher civic engagement\, more social cohesion\, higher child welfare\, and lower poverty rates. A vibrant arts community ensures that young people are not left to be raised solely in a pop culture and tabloid marketplace.\n9. Arts improve healthcare. Nearly one-half of the nation’s healthcare institutions provide arts programming for patients\, families\, and even staff. 78 percent deliver these programs because of their healing benefits to patients—shorter hospital stays\, better pain management\, and less medication.\n10. Arts mean business. The Creative Industries are arts businesses that range from nonprofit museums\, symphonies\, and theaters to for-profit film\, architecture\, and design companies. A 2014 analysis of Dun & Bradstreet data counts 750\,453 businesses in the U.S. involved in the creation or distribution of the arts that employ 3.1 million people—representing 4.2 percent of all businesses and 2.2 percent of all employees\, respectively.
