Stimulus Package Could Help Texas Performing Artists And Venues

Senator John Cornyn Author of ” Save our Stages” Act

There’s $15-billion worth of help coming to music and theater venues that have been struggling to survive in 2020. Texas Senator John Cornyn’s “Save Our Stages Act” was included in the latest omnibus Covid Relief Bill. Cornyn says it’s similar to the paycheck protection program, specifically for the arts, like music and theater venues. Cornyn says they designed it to help the small and independent entertainment venues that Texas is famous for re-open once state and local officials say it’s safe.
