THE WHAT
AGES: 18+
REPS: You need to be currently represented by a PNW Talent Agent to attend.
WHEN: April 19, 3pm – 5pm.
The AWA Collective is a monthly meeting for actors with agents in the PNW region (WA, OR, ID) to compare notes, share resources, and talk honestly about the business.
Designed specifically for represented actors, this gathering creates space for candid conversation around auditions, communication with reps, career strategy, industry changes, and the emotional realities of navigating a professional acting career.
The goal is to build a thoughtful, empowering community where actors can feel more informed, more organized, and less alone in the process. This is a space for support, perspective, mutual respect, and collective strength among actors who are actively represented and invested in their growth.
THE HOST
David S. Hogan
The AWA Collective is hosted by David S. Hogan, a working actor who began his professional career in 2000 and has spent decades building a life in the industry both as an artist and as a mentor. Through his work as an actor, coach, and studio leader, David has become known for his clarity, generosity, and deep commitment to helping actors navigate the profession with greater confidence and perspective.
He is passionate about creating spaces where actors can connect honestly, support one another, and feel less isolated in an industry that can often feel uncertain or opaque. With David at the helm, the AWA Collective is intended to be not just a meeting, but a meaningful point of connection, encouragement, and shared momentum for represented actors.
