It’s that time of year again! The Phoenix Film Festival is looking for fellow movie-lovers to volunteer for the upcoming festival! The PFF is returning to the Harkins Scottsdale off the 101 and will be held April 12-19, 2007. We’ve extended the original festival by 4 additional days to give everyone the opportunity to see showcase films they may have missed during the first 4 days of the festival.

We are looking for enthusiastic people in the following areas:

Ticketing; Theatre operations; Volunteer check-in; Expo booths; Educational outreach; Filmmaker liaison; Events & Merchandising. Volunteers with technical experience are also encouraged to apply. There are also several opportunities for people to commit their volunteer hours prior to the festival. There will be promotional events; screenings and street teams to market the festival. We’ll also need people to help with moving; set-up and clean up as well as volunteers to help in the Phoenix Film Festival office.

In exchange for their commitment of 24 hours, volunteers will receive a festival t-shirt and a full festival pass (excludes the opening night screening).

Volunteer Orientations will take place at the Phoenix Film Foundation offices located in the Metro Arts Institute, 1700 N, 7^th Ave Suite 250. The building is on the NW corner of 7^th Avenue and McDowell. Orientations have been scheduled for:

Sunday, April 1st at noon

Orientation lasts about an hour and you will have the opportunity to schedule the shifts you like to volunteer. If you want to be a part of Arizona’s Premier Arts event, please email volunteer@phxfilm.com for more information.

See you at the festival!
