What is King County Creative Economy? 
The Creative Economy Initiative 
  
 King County has long been home to artists, filmmakers, musicians, union crews, and content creators who help make this region culturally vibrant and economically strong. The Creative Economy Initiative is focusing on Film and Music in particular as key priorities of our creative economy. 
 
Film and Television Production 
While King County has long been a home for filmmaking, our state tax incentives and local infrastructure has not remained competitive with our neighbors to the north and south, making it difficult to attract films. King County will work to improve our edge, generate jobs and stimulate business in the local economy through film. 
King County’s Creative Economy Initiative (King County Creative) has three primary goals: 

  • Leverage King County resources and assets to equitably grow the regional film industry 
  • Leverage King County resources and assets to equitably grow the regional music industry 
  • Work to preserve artistically generative spaces throughout King County
