        Who We Are

         

        Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) is the umbrella organisation for professional screen actors in the Nigerian motion picture industry, known as Nollywood. Officially registered in 1998, our Guild was set up to represent screen performers who entertain and educate our society, and the world about our socio-cultural heritage and essence, as we create professional awareness and protect the interest and welfare of our members.

         

        Members of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) are the brand faces of Nollywood because our members are cultural ambassadors who project a positive image of our country, Nigeria to the world and champion arts, culture and tourism through their artistic performances and talents.
