The Chicago office of Actors' Equity Association hosted a New Member Reception on Monday November 14, 2012 in the Association's West Randolph Street office. Chicago area new Members were welcomed by E. Faye Butler, Central Regional Board Member. Also welcoming new Members were Ariane Dolan, Councillor and Chair of the Outreach & Education Committee; Christine Provost, now Central Regional Director; John Fasulo, National Director of Membership and the majority of the Chicago Equity Staff.

The tone of the gathering was warm with a true community feel, affirming the ongoing personal and friendly atmosphere of the Equity office. It was emphasized to the new Members that Equity is there to support their efforts and provide assistance to them as they journey through their careers.

Within the extended Q & A were insights regarding Equity Agreements, membership and benefits. There was also career advice covering how to negotiate your next contract and tips on how to crossover from auditioning exclusively for plays to also auditioning for musicals (and vice versa).

Equity's newest Members also received informational handouts and Equity giveaways.

Chicago New Member Receptions are held once a year. If you were unable to attend the most recent event, the next Reception will be held in the Fall. Watch Equity's website for date and time.
