Arkansas has pioneered film incentives since 1983, but inconsistent funding has limited our potential. By fully funding our film incentives, Arkansas can attract more major productions, create thousands of jobs, keep local talent home, and boost our economy dramatically—just like Georgia, Oklahoma, and New Mexico.

Our mission is ambitious, and advocating for these legislative changes requires support from people like you. We'd be thrilled to connect and collaborate.

Provided for films made in Arkansas or made by an Arkansan, the Filmmaker Travel Stipend provides a $250 stipend for short films and $500 stipend for feature films of writers, directors or producers traveling to competitive festivals outside of Arkansas. It's also awarded to the winner of the Arkansas Filmmaker Audience Award winner annually at FILMLAND.
