The mission of the Episcopal Actors’ Guild is to provide emergency aid and support to professional performers of all faiths who are undergoing financial crisis. They are also dedicated to helping emerging artists advance their careers through scholarships, awards, and performance opportunities.

Founded in 1923, EAG is not only a non-sectarian charitable organization, they are also a membership organization and welcome the participation of all those who are interested in celebrating the talent and dedication needed to sustain a career in the performing arts. They hold several events each month with all proceeds being used to support performers in need.

Their headquarters and historic theatre are located on the second floor of New York’s landmarked Church of the Transfiguration, also known as “The Little Church Around the Corner.” ​
