Overview
A unique institution at the heart of Melbourne's iconic meeting place, Federation Square, the Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI) celebrates, explores and promotes the cultural and creative richness of the moving image in all its forms - film, television and digital culture.
Through a vibrant calendar of award-winning Australian and international exhibitions, films, festivals, talks and live events, creative workshops, education programs and collection resources, ACMI provides diverse audiences with unsurpassed ways to engage with the moving image.
As one of Victoria's major cultural, tourism and learning attractions, ACMI is an integral element in Melbourne's position as one of the world's truly creative cities.
Starting life as the State Film Centre in 1946, ACMI evolved from being a collection based institution to an internationally recognised national hub for screening and advocacy, screen education, industry engagement and audience involvement.
Driven by the desire to fulfil its vision to become the world's leading moving image centre, ACMI has recently carried out the most significant phase of its development and growth.
Highlights include new gallery and production spaces, substantially enhanced visitor experiences, an expanded suite of exhibitions, education, film and public programs and a new national screen culture resource centre, the Australian Mediatheque.
At the heart of ACMI is a new permanent, free entry exhibition charting the journey of the moving image and, in particular, Australia's engagement with screen culture: Screen Worlds: The Story of Film, Television and Digital Culture.
Play your part in a globally unique institution.
