On December 27, 2020, the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits and Venues Act, was signed into law. The Act introduces a new $15 billion grant program through which the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) will provide aid to struggling live venue operators or promoters, theatrical producers, or live performing arts organization operators, relevant museum operators, motion picture theatres, and talent representative/agents. This program offers a critical lifeline from the Federal government for the nation’s performing arts venues, movie theatres and museums. More information can be found here:
