ACMI (Australian Centre for the Moving Image) is a dynamic museum that celebrates the art, history, and technology of film, television, video games, and digital culture. Housed in Federation Square, the museum features permanent and rotating exhibitions that invite visitors to create their own animations, edit video clips, and explore the evolution of screen-based media. Its distinctive feature is the hands-on, participatory approach, allowing guests to step into the roles of director, editor, or game designer. The museum also hosts film screenings and talks.
