SAG-AFTRA national and Los Angeles Local officers attended one of the opening week festivities for the much-anticipated Academy Museum of Motion Pictures on Sept. 28 in Los Angeles. They were given the opportunity to walk through the seven-story landmark prior to its Sept. 30 introduction to the public.
The massive 300,000-square-foot space houses exhibits that feature the art and science of moviemaking, the largest collection of flm-related items in the world, and an opportunity for patrons to learn about the collaborative efforts of flm and its rich history.
Other highlights include an entire room of Academy statuettes, collections of actors’ screen tests and a section sharing labor’s efforts on behalf of the flmmaking community.
