Advocacy

Austin Creative Alliance is committed to building strong, active, positive public awareness, engagement, and support for Austin’s creative arts and cultural scene. ACA believes that art is an integral part of contemporary life, and that a thriving creative sector means a healthier economy, a higher level of cultural sustainability, and a better standard of living for everyone.

Annual Unified General Auditions

Each year Austin Creative Alliance partners with University of Texas at Austin’s Department of Radio, Television and Film and the Austin Casting Alliance to host an area wide general audition that can showcase actor talent. This is an important and unparalleled opportunity for actors to have their work seen by major Central Texas producers, directors, and casting agents.
