Volunteer at our office this summer to support CRRC’s resource clean up and digitization project!

The CRRC office has changed in the past few months, and in the process of cleaning, de-cluttering, and overhauling some outdated furniture, we are looking for volunteers to help us sort through old resources and archival materials that can be digitized, organized and recycled. In this work, office volunteers will help us create a digital archive of our outdated resources and memories including photographs, letters, articles and so on. The CRRC is hoping to include some of these archived memories in our upcoming 40th Anniversary celebration and short documentary which will be featured at the ReFrame Film Festival in 2023.
