An Act amending the act of January 25, 1966 (1965 P.L.1542, No.538), entitled "An act creating a Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, for the encouragement and development of the various arts, and making an appropriation therefor," establishing the Pennsylvania Film Producer Grant Program and the Pennsylvania Film Producer Grant Program Account; and making a repeal.
SB 928 creates the Pennsylvania Film Producer Grant Program to provide financial support to eligible film producers. It directly affects film producers who maintain their principal business in Pennsylvania and film projects entirely within the state, excluding news, sports, political content, or productions for private/institutional use. The program establishes a restricted account in the state General Fund for grants covering site preparation, crew costs, and other qualifying production expenses. Administered by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, grants require producers to meet specific location and project criteria outlined in the bill.
