Can I still be a sponsor/donor?
Yes, absolutely! More than ever, RRFF relies on the generous spirit of community members like you. We still have sponsorship opportunities for branding and advertising, and donors may contribute via the GoFundMe account, the PayPal account or by contacting ryan@redrosefilmfestival.com.
Do you have volunteer opportunities this year?
As we have adjusted our festival scope and scale this year, our need for volunteers has lessened temporarily, though we are always scouting for enthusiastic filmgoers who love to be a part of a great community celebration of art, local economy, downtown development and fun!
