Friends of the National Film and Sound Archive, Melbourne Branch
The Melbourne branch of the Friends was launched in November 2019, in collaboration with The Thornbury Picture House and the Liardet Community Centre in Port Melbourne.
Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 restrictions currently in force, we have had to cancel our monthly Sundays with Friends events for the foreseeable future. However, we’ve successfully held a number of online presentations, and have a number more to come.
Some of our successful events in 2020 were as follows:
