Do I need my Member Card to take advantage of the Playwrights Welcome Program?

You must show your Member Card to prove you are a member and take advantage of the Playwrights Welcome Program. Photos of your Member Card are not valid at Playwrights Welcome, even though they are valid for a play submission. 

If you have lost your current card, please login to your Dramatists Guild member account. Go to the Member Dashboard, click on the My Member tab, and locate the 'Member Card' button. There, you can request a new Member Card. Please note that all replacement cards require a $4.00 fee, and it can take up to 20 business days to process your replacement Member Card. 

Another alternative would be to request a member verification letter. To do so, please contact questions@dramatistsguild.com and request a member verification letter. We can provide it to you in under 24 hours. Member Verification letters are valid at Playwrights Welcome.
