When

3rd Friday of the Month

10.30am

A fun, free program created for two to five year-olds to enjoy ACMI with their parent, grandparent or carer.

Join us each month for a guided play-based experience designed to help young learners engage with ideas and concepts explored at ACMI – your museum of film, TV, videogames and digital art.

Each month we focus on a different theme, so there is always something new to enjoy and discover!

Fri 20 Jun: Animation

We will have fun making animation with toys! After the session visit our our centrepiece exhibition The Story of the Moving Image.

Tickets are free and go on sale 2 weeks before each session. You can also try your luck on the day. The session runs for 45mins and will start on time.

Fri 18 July: Family fun film screening of Ponyo

Bring friends and older siblings to the cinema at ACMI for our free screening of Ponyo, a sweet tale about a goldfish princess. We'll leave the lights on low, so no one gets scared in the dark. This session has a longer run time than our usual preschoolers program (10.30am - 12.15pm) but feel free to pop in for a taste of what it's like to watch a movie in the big screen. After the session visit our our centrepiece exhibition The Story of the Moving Image.
