The Atlanta Film Society's success is based on creating a positive, professional and fun atmosphere for our audience, filmmakers and guests. Our staff and volunteers are our greatest assets, therefore it is important to remember that as a volunteer you are often the first and last impression of the Atlanta Film Society. All volunteers, staff, contractors, and attendees of ATLFS events are expected to follow our Code of Conduct. 

The Atlanta Film Society, in accordance with applicable federal and state law, is an equal-opportunity employer that seeks an inclusive and representative staff and particularly welcomes applications from women and diverse ethnicities. The Atlanta Film Society does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, pregnancy/childbirth, medical condition, disability, age, ancestry, marital status, citizenship or veteran status. This nondiscrimination policy covers all staff members, interns and volunteers.
