Bill Summary
AN ACT TO CREATE A SALES AND USE TAX EXEMPTION FOR THE ARKANSAS MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS AND THE ARKANSAS MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS FOUNDATION; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.
AI Summary
This bill creates a sales and use tax exemption for the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts and the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts Foundation. Specifically, the legislation amends existing Arkansas tax code to add a new provision that eliminates sales tax on gross receipts from the sale of tangible personal property, digital products, digital codes, or services to these two organizations. The tax exemption will go into effect on the first day of the calendar quarter following the bill's approval. By providing this tax exemption, the bill aims to support the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts and its foundation by reducing their financial burden and potentially allowing them to allocate more resources to their cultural and educational missions.
