Our history

This story charts the growth of Australia’s national museum of film, TV, videogames, digital culture and art from its beginnings as the State Film Centre of Victoria, to its reincarnation in 2002 as the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, the opening of Screen Worlds in 2009 and the re-emergence in 2021 of our renewed multiplatform museum.
