ACTRA Toronto Townhall @ Zoom
Oct 8 @ 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm

For the last 15 years, ACTRA Toronto members have gathered together at our fall conference to participate in professional development workshops, listen to panels and attend a plenary session with guest speakers from the industry and members of the ACTRA Toronto Council. Well, this year isn’t like other years but that doesn’t mean we can’t get together virtually.

  • Celebrate new ACTRA Life Members Jani Lauzon and Jackie Richardson
  • Hear from guest speaker, Nathalie Younglai, founder of BIPOC TV & Film, on efforts across the industry to challenge anti-Black racism
  • Ask questions of our panel of performers about getting back to work with new COVID protocols in place
  • Catch up on the latest news from the Union
