The event will be held at the Rainwater Conference Center and will include filmmakers, economic development officials, elected leaders and business owners from South Georgia and beyond. The event will highlight entertainment opportunities in the region with a focus on workforce development and local businesses participating in the growth of the Creative Economy.
“South Georgia has a rich history of music, the arts, film and entertainment. City and county officials have been so supportive as we prepare for this event, reflecting the desire to further magnify what is already happening in this part of the state,” said Randy Davidson, President of Georgia Entertainment. “As Governor Kemp has noted on different occasions, the jobs and growth of film and entertainment in South Georgia is an important initiative.”
