A Call to Arts

 
President Barack Obama has called upon SAG-AFTRA and the American Film Institute to reach out to young people pursuing careers in the cinematic arts. In collaboration with industry colleagues and partner organizations, including universities, colleges, non-governmental organizations, associations and unions, this national effort aims to generate a million hours of mentoring across the country over the next three years.

The SAG-AFTRA President’s Task Force on Education, Outreach and Engagement is incorporating A Call to Arts into its national education and outreach campaign, reaching the union’s 160,000 members and tens of thousands of pre-members and students across the country.

Join the initiative by registering at sagaftra.org/acalltoarts.
