Mission

At ActNow, we are committed to fostering a dynamic & inclusive community where LGBTQIA2S+ artists not only thrive but also redefine the boundaries of their craft. Our mission is to provide a safe, challenging, and empowering space that shifts the focus of traditional acting & creative arts training. We prioritize the journey of unlayering an artist’s "go-to" or default persona, encouraging the discovery of their true authenticity.
