Access for Action: Discount Movie Tickets on Weekends + Summer

Avatar: Bronx River Art Center Bronx River Art Center
Idea Submission for The People's Money:
A voucher-based discount program would make weekend and summer movie tickets more affordable for families and young people. Half of all weekend tickets, including food bundles, would be offered at a discount through 20,000 vouchers sold to companies at $10 each. Public libraries would distribute additional vouchers so library card holders can access these discounted tickets.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
The cost of movie theater tickets has become increasingly high, making it difficult for many community members, especially families and young people, to afford regular access to local theaters.
