Review for Root Division, San Francisco, CA, USA
I'm an intern at Root Division, and what I've been most impressed with is how accessible the staff is, especially given that they're modern and have pretty big openings. And the idea of giving artists cheap studio space in exchange for giving back to the community is a really nice idea. *This review was collected during a site visit to Root Division's 3 Minute Film Festival and entered by GreatNonprofits staff on behalf of the reviewer

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
helping with the shows and the openings, and really getting exposure to all facets of what it's like being an artist through things like the 2nd Saturday programs.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
they're really great. Helpful, supportive, approachable.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
