Stage 32's February 2026 Community Open House Webcast

Every success story begins with a first step.

Whether you’re chasing representation, looking for collaborators, or ready to stop creating in isolation, the Stage 32 Community Open House is your opportunity to show up, be seen, and start making real progress.

This free event is not a presentation. It’s a recorded session guided by Ashley Smith, Head of Community at Stage 32, with support from the Stage 32 team. You’ll be invited to share your goals, ask questions, and tell us exactly what you’re looking for right now in your creative journey.

Ashley will walk you through the most powerful tools on Stage 32, including how to build a strong profile that works as your virtual business card and clearly communicates your creative voice. You’ll learn how to participate in the free Stage 32 Lounges in a way that builds visibility, trust, and real relationships—how to make a compelling post, engage in ongoing conversations, and stay active without feeling overwhelmed.

You’ll also learn how to stay informed through the Stage 32 Blog, and how to access Stage 32 Education, Certification, and Script Services that align with your goals. Sydney from the Education Team will also be live to answer questions and help members understand which educational paths may be the best fit for where they are now.

The session will wrap with a Q&A tailored to attendee goals—whether you’re a writer, director, producer, actor, editor, or multi-hyphenate. Wherever you’re starting from, this is a space to gain clarity and momentum.
