ACMI - Australian Centre for the Moving Image

ACMI is an innovative, dynamic, performance-orientated cultural business. It is self-directed, though it falls within the Victorian public sector.

ACMI seeks to nurture an entrepreneurial team spirit delivering varied cultural, creative and performance aims. In an environment of hard working but passionate enthusiasm for our subject matter and audiences, ACMI aims to provide rich opportunities for staff and organisational interests to thrive.

Our Mission

To enrich our lives and foster our creative industries by illuminating the moving images and technologies that define our age

Our Values

We believe ….

collaboration enables real accomplishment  - we foster and value partnerships working collegially with our colleagues inside and outside the organisation with openness, honesty and transparency 

creative expression takes diverse forms  - we support freedom of expression and embrace diversity by being inclusive, fair and respectful  

in working together with integrity and respect - we are fair and trustworthy in all of our dealings, we are honest and clear with compassion and empathy, and we respect diversity and difference
