Notes

2020: Association record (context): NIVA organized the shuttered independent venues from April 2020 and campaigned for the Save Our Stages Act, enacted as the Shuttered Venue Operators Grant program (15 U.S.C. § 9009a, Ex. SEC-17-001), in which Congress described the class 'live venue operator or promoter, theatrical producer, or live performing arts organization operator... or a talent representative.'. 2021: Shuttered Venue Operators Grants opened April 2021 (context; Ex. SEC-17-001). Usual dates: Formed April 2020. Scale: The association's homepage as captured July 1, 2020 describes independent venues as 'revenue generators for neighboring businesses such as restaurants, hotels, and retail' and its mission 'to preserve and nurture the ecosystem of independent live music venues and promoters' (Ex. SEC-25-GM-051). Venue orders 2020: NY-010, NJ-002, NV-004, CA-002, IL-005, TX-016.
