The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures is the world’s premier institution dedicated to the art and science of motion pictures. Global in outlook and grounded in the unparalleled collection and expertise of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the Academy Museum is led by Director and President Amy Homma and offers exhibitions and programs illuminating the world of cinema. Since its opening in 2021, the Academy Museum has offered an ambitious slate of permanent and temporary exhibitions, film screenings, and K-12 and public education programs. Museum film programs highlight the rich diversity of film culture with a range of screenings and on-stage conversations.

Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Renzo Piano, the museum’s campus contains the restored and revitalized historic Saban Building—formerly known as the May Company building (1939)—and a soaring spherical addition. Together, these buildings contain 50,000 square feet of exhibition spaces, two state-of-the-art theaters, the Shirley Temple Education Studio, and beautiful public spaces that are free and open to the public. These include: The Walt Disney Company Piazza and the Sidney Poitier Grand Lobby, which houses the Spielberg Family Gallery, Academy Museum Store, and Fanny’s restaurant and café.

The Academy Museum’s annual Alfred P. Sloan Foundation screenings examine the intersection of science and cinema. Special limited film series focus on different science-related subjects, including memories and dreams in cinema, space exploration, and the museum’s first film program to focus on the natural world.
