SanFran-NorCal Local Celebrates the 30th Screen Actors Guild Awards®

Local News

Awards night brought a lot of fun and a monumental win for local members!

San Francisco-Northern California Local members were dressed to impress and excited to gather together at the historic San Francisco Elks Lodge No. 3 ballroom and lounge on Feb. 24 to watch the 30th Annual SAG Awards®, which was streamed live globally on Netflix. 

Veteran members joined with new members, including those who had joined just days before, to celebrate all the nominees — but most especially those who began their careers in the local. The excitement felt throughout the party culminated at the end of the night, when the cast of Oppenheimer received the award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. The blockbuster was filmed in part throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, and many in attendance worked on the project.
