Representative Breaux presented House Bill 18‑28 to grant a sales tax exemption to Inspiration Point for the Arts and Arts Center, describing a $40 million opera house west of Eureka Springs and plans for additional dorms and facilities; transcript records discussion only and no vote.
Representative Harlan Breaux presented House Bill 18‑28 seeking a sales tax exemption for Inspiration Point for the Arts and associated facilities. Breaux described the organization as operating an existing $40 million opera house west of Eureka Springs and said the exemption would support construction of dormitories and additional facilities to make the operation more self‑sustaining.
Committee members asked about the organization’s activities and whether it might qualify under the small nonprofit exemption discussed earlier; Breaux said he did not have the group’s annual operating budget on hand. No witnesses testified for or against the bill and no committee vote was recorded in the transcript.
