Are you missing out on union auditions and events in New England? The AFTRA/SAG Boston office has a members-only hotline, available by both phone and email, that's updated on an as-needed basis with casting notices and other time-sensitive union news!
You can call the hotline and hear the updated recorded messages, or send us your email address and automatically be sent the AFTRA/SAG hotline via email every time it's updated. Don't miss out!
Available only to members in good standing, the hotline number is available by calling or emailing the Boston AFTRA/SAG office at (617) 262-8001 or boston@aftra.com. Please note that your union status will be verified.
Conservatory
Conservatories are held on the first Monday of each month consisting of both training and informational seminars on subjects such as audition tips, headshots, marketing tools, performing tools and contract terms. Information regarding dates and locations of upcoming conservatories are posted about 2 weeks in advance of each conservatory.
Casting Director Audition Access
Casting Director Audition Access is a program offered as a benefit to members of the Boston Branch. This program was designed to give a broad range of members the opportunity to audition for principal work being cast by New England based casting directors. Previous Casting Director Audition Access sessions have led to members being cast in principle roles on productions such as Brotherhood and The Departed. Casting directors also benefit from the ability to audition members that they may not know or that may not be in their current casting files.
* This program is sponsored by the Boston Branch and is not in association with the Casting Access program sponsored by the SAG Foundation.

“Let’s Go to the Movies!”
Discount movies tickets for Loews/Sony theaters are available to all active and paid-up members.

Tickets are $7.50 each and can be ordered by mail or picked up at the Boston office with a minimum purchase of two tickets.

Motion Picture Players Welfare Fund
Financial Assistance is Available through the Motion Picture Players Welfare Fund
Financial aid is available through an application process to members who have paid dues for at least six dues periods (the dues periods need not be consecutive). Additionally, the applicant’s membership must be in good standing at the time the application is made (not on withdrawal or terminated) or be vested for pension purposes.
The Screen Actors Guild Foundation
The Foundation enhances the lives of actors by investing in programs which help them in their professional endeavors. Their financial assistance, catastrophic health, educational and literacy programs reflect the concerns and interests of SAG members as well as their desire to "give back" to their communities. The SAG Foundation is independent from SAG but offers substantive services to Guild members, free of charge. For details please visit www.sagfoundation.org or call (323) 549-6708.
