Inside Out is a not-for-profit registered charity that exists to challenge attitudes and change lives through the promotion, production, and exhibition of film made by and about 2SLGBTQ+ people of all ages, races and abilities.
Are you passionate about 2SLGBTQ+ storytelling? Looking for a way to connect with community and give back? Looking to build practical skills or employment references? Volunteer with the Inside Out Film Festival!
For 35 years, Inside Out has challenged attitudes and changed lives through the promotion, production, and exhibition of film made by and about 2SLGBTQ+ people. Our team of over 200 dedicated volunteers is the heartbeat of this work and truly essential in making the festival possible.
We have a range of volunteer opportunities available to suit your schedule and ability. From front of house to set-up to supporting our parties, there is a role for everyone. Volunteers are expected to be available for 3 shifts during the festival.
To show our appreciation, volunteers receive a keepsake festival t-shirt, the chance to see some of the world’s best 2SLGBTQ+ films, and an invitation to our fabulous wrap-up party with prizes for festival involvement.
In a time of renewed pushback to queer, trans, and two-spirit storytelling, it is as important as ever to support artistic production that exemplifies the brilliance, diversity, and vision of our community. We hope you will join our team in making Canada’s largest 2SLGBTQ+ film festival a success!
