The RI FILM economic study presentation to the Subcommittee
on Tourism, Arts and Recreation

State House, Room 101 March 22, 2022

The House Subcommittee on Tourism, Arts and Recreation was chaired by the outstanding Newport Representative Lauren Carson. We shared the Newport Chamber’s comprehensive Economic study of the RI Motion Picture Incentive by Industrial Economics Inc. from Cambridge MA which stated each $1.00 in a tax credit returned $5.44 of economic activity in RI. A profound success, and that does not even include the additional tourism windfall! Thank you to all who support the arts. RIFILM Works!
