About the Role
Help Shape the Future of Ottawa’s Creative and Independent Film Community
Digi60 is seeking passionate, forward-thinking volunteer board members to help guide the festival into its next chapter.
Digi60 is a working bord of directors on our way to achieving a governance board by 2027.

Over the next 2-3 years, we’re focused on expanding our mentorship and education programs - especially for emerging filmmakers from underserved communities - empowering them to create bold, meaningful work.
If you're ready to make a lasting impact on Ottawa’s independent film scene, we want to hear from you!
