“The Auditioneers Toolbox”
Serving a specific need for our Arts Community, this group will focus on the things actors need to find and get work. Audition notices, job postings for technicians, acting workshop/classes/seminars, photographers with headshot specials, and graphic designers for personalized websites. How many times have missed an audition because we missed the listing, or had to go wading through multiple outlets to find what we need. How many acting classes go unnoticed? This group has been redesigned and reimagined for just this purpose www.facebook.com/groups/234736336594945/
