The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures is the largest in the United States devoted to the arts, sciences, and artists of moviemaking. Global in outlook and grounded in the unparalleled collections and expertise of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the Academy Museum offers exceptional exhibitions and programs illuminating the world of cinema. They are immersive and dynamic and tell the many stories of the movies—their art, technology, artists, history, and social impact—through various diverse and engaging voices. The Academy Museum tells complete stories of moviemaking—celebratory, educational, and sometimes critical or uncomfortable.
Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Renzo Piano, the Academy Museum’s seven floors feature exhibition spaces, unique event spaces, a conservation studio, a café, and a museum store. The Shirley Temple Education Studio hosts workshops and learning opportunities for teens, schools, and families. In addition, the museum’s 966-seat David Geffen Theater and 277-seat Ted Mann Theater present a year-round calendar of screenings, film series, member programs, panel discussions, family programs, and symposia. Programs include retrospectives and thematic series illuminating the artistic and cultural contributions of an international selection of movie artists.
Every decision made at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures reflects a carefully crafted set of guiding principles that begins with the Mission Statement. These extend into the design of its exhibitions, the development of its public and educational programs, the creation of its publications, the hiring and growth of its staff, and the development of its board of trustees and committees.
Since 2008, the Academy Museum has been amassing a collection of three-dimensional objects related to motion pictures. This collection, now comprising approximately 5,000 items, showcases various aspects of motion picture technology, costume design, production design, makeup, hairstyling, and promotional materials. Additionally, the museum will draw upon the remarkable holdings of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which encompasses an unparalleled range of objects and technology associated with motion picture production and history. These include works on paper, still and moving images, and an extensive archive covering the history of motion pictures in the United States and worldwide. Noteworthy elements of the collection consist of more than 12.5 million photographs, 237,000 film and video assets, 85,000 screenplays, 65,000 posters, and 133,000 pieces of production art. Among the highlights are over 1,700 special collections dedicated to legendary figures in film, such as Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn, Hattie McDaniel, Alfred Hitchcock, and John Huston.
Built in Los Angeles, the movie capital of the world, the museum is housed in the renovated and expanded May Company building—now the Saban Building—on Wilshire Boulevard.
