Australian Centre for the Moving Image

Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

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, live events, creative workshops, education programs, and Collection resources, ACMI provides diverse audiences with unsurpassed ways to engage with the moving image. Audiences of all ages and abilities with diverse, stimulating, and creative opportunities to actively engage with the moving image and screen culture.

The centerpiece is a new, free entry, permanent exhibition charting the journey of the moving image and, in particular, Australia's engagement with screen culture as consumer and creator. Screen Worlds: The Story of Film, Television and Digital Culture is a unique, interactive and immersive exhibition that dynamically illustrates how each of the forms of the moving image have emerged and evolved as a powerful creative medium.
