At the heart of the Mill Valley Film Festival (MVFF) is a vibrant community that comes together to celebrate the magic of cinema. We are delighted to invite local residents to play a crucial role in this celebration by offering a warm welcome to the dedicated professionals who make this event possible. By donating a spare room or vacation rental in Marin County, you help us ensure that our festival maintains its reputation for excellence.

Opening your home provides our staff with convenient accommodations close to festival venues, allowing them to focus wholeheartedly on bringing standout programs and events to life. Many of our past hosts have cherished the unique opportunity to forge lasting friendships with our talented team and enjoy a behind-the-scenes look at the festival’s inner workings. It’s a rewarding experience that many find themselves eager to repeat each year.
