Want to become a part of an incredibly impactful, passionate, and dynamic community of film-lovers… and gain real world work experience?

Then volunteering with the 2023 American Indian Film Festival might just be the perfect fit! With 48 years of festival experience under our belt, the American Indian Film Festival brings together some of the most talented American Indian filmmakers from around the world, to bring recognition and appreciation to their incredible work. This year again, we have many, many exciting and vibrant film programs and special events.  

Our volunteers are the ones that make this all possible. Not only do volunteers help bring the festival to life, but they gain real world work experience and make amazing connections with patrons, filmmakers, and industry professionals while receiving invaluable insights into the world of film and the American Indian community. 

We have volunteer opportunities over the next three months leading up to the film festival that can be performed remotely as well as ones on-site during the nine-day festival November 3-11 in San Francisco.
