Volunteer with us
Festival CINERGIE offers a wide variety of volunteer positions for youth, adults and seniors in a Francophone environment in Saskatoon. It is the perfect opportunity to support your local Francophone film festival, make connections with the community, practice your French, gain experience to add to your work resume (volunteering is a great way to stand out and get a foot in the door), and gain free access to the festival! CINERGIE offers volunteer positions, both before, and during the festival week and throughout the year.
