The Imagination Center will also serve
members nationwide as a think-tank space
equipped with digital media educational
classes and distance learning capabilities to
give members across the country a new and
dynamic way to interface, hone their abilities
and expand their knowledge.
With members who are younger and more
digitally savvy than ever before, "this facility
is being built with the understanding that our
industry is evolving and we must be ready
with vision, innovation, imagination and
preparation," said SAG-AFTRA President
Gabrielle Carteris.
"This space brings together a number
of essential themes that suffuse our
work throughout the entire union," said
SAG-AFTRA National Executive Director
David White. "It will support our efforts
to provide technology and training to
our membership. It will help us bring
the next generation of content creators,
performers and other creative artists into
the SAG-AFTRA family, and expand their
networks and skills."
Dedicated at a ceremonial ribbon-cutting
Nov. 8, the Member Imagination Center is
slated for completion in spring 2020.
