SAG-AFTRA Atlanta Local

Summer is here and we’re having the time of our lives! ☀️ Earlier this month, members came out to enjoy our annual picnic with music, games and good conversation. Even with a little rain we enjoyed our time! ⛅

Huge thanks to all who joined us. 🤗 We're already looking forward to our next epic picnic! 🧺

A night of brilliance! ✨ The Local recently hosted an evening with the cast and creators of ‘Beyond The Gates.’ Tamara Tunie, Clifton Davis, Sheila Ducksworth and Julie Carruthers reflected on their remarkable careers, shared lessons learned throughout their journeys and discussed how they’ve continued to evolve and thrive in an ever-changing entertainment industry.

As a special treat we included cast members Lauren Buglioli, Jibre Hordges, Karan Kendrick, Sean Freeman, Trisha Mann-Grant as guests to discuss the highly anticipated crossover event with The Young and the Restless that aired earlier this month.

Thank you to the stunning cast of CBS’s ‘Beyond The Gates’ for making the evening special! 👏💛
