Celebrate National Science Week with Scinema

Join us at the museum as we broadcast the International Science Film Festival throughout the week in celebration of National Science Week.

A different film will be playing each weekday at both 10am and midday, so come along on multiple days to view the variety of films on show. Movies vary from 30 minute to one hour in length.

This is a free event and bookings are not required. 

SCINEMA, pronounced with a long ‘i’ to emphasise the science behind the cinema, is an international science film festival based in Australia, providing a platform on which filmmakers, professional, amateur and student, can showcase their science films, from dramas to documentaries, animations or epic natural history.
