Although run under the auspices of SAG-AFTRA, membership dues are not used to pay for NY Conservatory activity. Your nominal Conservatory registration fee goes to pay for such things as studio equipment and a small travel stipend for the teachers. Additionally, fellow actors just like you volunteer their time to run this fine program.
