This is a new gallery and this is their first big show, so they don't have much experience with the sales tax thing, and have asked us to deal with it. For other shows she's done (non-solo), the gallery did take care of sales tax, but it's pretty much a no go for this one...we're just glad that she's going to be the featured artist for their debut. It's very likely that she'll move enough money to attract the attention of the IRS, so we definitely have to do this as a sole proprietorship. I have experience with that as a consultant, but I've never had to deal with selling things that have sales tax attached.
