The bill also creates an art instruction studio license, which authorizes the licensee to serve wine or beer on the premises of the licensee to any bona fide customer of the licensee; however, the licensee shall not give more than two five-ounce glasses of wine or one 12-ounce glass of beer to any such customer, nor shall it sell or otherwise charge a fee to such customer for the wine or beer served or consumed. The bill defines art instruction studio and sets the state and local taxes for this new license.
