Business income (1099-misc box 7 proceeds) and your related business expenses go on Schedule C, see instructions below. Keep in mind schedule C is for reporting business income and expenses. A requirement of using Schedule C is that you are in a business trying to seek a profit. Without a profit motive, you are considered to be engaged in a hobby.
Beginning in 2018, the IRS doesn't allow you to deduct hobby expenses from hobby income. you must claim all hobby income and are not permitted to reduce that income by any expenses.
Be careful when classifying the income. If you call it 'not for profit', you can't use Schedule C and therefore can't avoid the income tax. The article below covers the opposite of your situation but explains the implications of 'for profit' and 'not for profit'.
