Call for Volunteers

Festival of Cinema NYC needs volunteers!

Festival of Cinema NYC is now accepting volunteer applications, from anyone age 13* and over, to join our 2021 team! Returning to the Regal UA Midway from September 24th to October 3rd. Volunteer activities will include setting up at our screening venues, ticket ushering, hospitality servicing, event & merchandise table operations, coordinating interviews, setting up at special presentations and after-parties.

We are looking for reliable, professional, and friendly crew members to work during various days & times throughout the festival’s 10-day run. As a member of the Festival of Cinema NYC team you will have the opportunity to experience firsthand how Festival of Cinema NYC operates by working alongside festival core staff. 

Volunteer members are entry level positions that may experience heavy activity with occasional downtime. Shifts average from 3 to 6 hours per day. Volunteers will be expected to take on different responsibilities throughout the course of their shift. (Applicants who feel they have special skills that may be beneficial to our team [e.g., Photography, Public Relations, Videography, etc.] may list those under the ‘SKILLS’ section to be considered for a permanent position within our team.) 

In compliance with current NYC COVID-19 regulations all our volunteers must be fully vaccinated or be willing to get vaccinated by September 24, 2021. Our team prioritizes the health and safety of all our guests, volunteers, and staff. As a safety measure we will provide everyone with the proper PPE, including face masks and gloves. Hand sanitizer will also be made available for use throughout the event. 

*Volunteer applications from ages 13 – 16 must provide parental consent
† Upon completion of services, verification letter and certificate will be available to student volunteers upon request.
