Trusts & Foundations

Thanks to a generous Flagship Grant from Gandel Foundation we now have two revitalised education studios – the Gandel Digital Future Labs – and support to take our education programs into regional Victoria. We are partnering with the Geelong and Bendigo Tech Schools to deliver programs in entrepreneurship, game design and emerging technologies. Gandel Foundation’s partnership provides real-life learning environments for young people to explore the skills and creativity for the jobs of their future.

Thanks to Naomi Milgrom AC and the Naomi Milgrom Foundation, we will launch a new series of international moving image art exhibitions, the first artwork Raumlichtkunst is now showing in ACMI's Gallery 2. The important partnership builds on ACMI’s and Naomi Milgrom AC’s experience of supporting, commissioning and presenting leading global artists working with the moving image.

The 6a Foundation and Ricci Swart’s generous support focuses on a section of our new centrepiece exhibition, Moving Australia. At the heart of the exhibition, this section celebrates the ground-breaking films, television programs and people from in-front and behind the camera, which reflects our unique stories, breathtaking landscapes and explore our national identity.

Generous support from the Sidney Myer Fund has enabled us to commission local First Nations artist Vicki Couzens' dynamic sculptural light installation and moving image work titled Yanmeeyarr  for the entrance and exit of our centrepiece exhibition The Story of the Moving Image.
