Volunteer - The Frida Cinema

Lend your skills and passion for cinema to us!

Every month, The Frida Cinema presents an average of 28 different films – far above the average for a two-screen theater, let alone an independent, non-profit art house cinema. If not for the volunteered time and energy provided to our organization by our amazing team of Volunteers, there is no way we would be able to afford such a robust programming slate. Our volunteers do so much more than pour popcorn and soda – they are an integral part of what makes The Frida Cinema’s impact possible.

If you dig what we do, love independent cinema, love talking about cinema to fellow film lovers, have volunteer hours you need to fulfill for school, are looking for an internship at a vibrant and fun cultural center, or simply feel like being of service, fill out our Volunteer Form and let us know all about you!

Volunteer Form

THE FRIDA CINEMA relies on volunteers for our basic operational functions to keep our doors open! As such, the core component of our volunteer program involves usual "movie theater" things on-site at our theater consisting of customer service, making sales/using a register, preparing and serving concessions, custodial duties/sweeping theaters, restocking items and restrooms, greeting guests, answering questions about our programming/organization/showtimes, and more! Please keep this in mind when applying. For internship opportunities, please contact logan@thefridacinema.org
