6.30pm - 8.20pm: Screening and panel event

Join us for a special Australian Museum Members evening as we celebrate the end of the year and thank you for your ongoing support.

Enjoy an exclusive screening featuring highlights from Ages of Ice, the new three-part ABC science series exploring the scientists, explorers and extraordinary environments at the frozen extremes of our planet.

From Antarctica to the Arctic, Ages of Ice follows researchers working on the front line of climate science, uncovering how changes in ice are shaping our understanding of Earth's past, present and future.

Following the screening, stay for an insightful panel discussion moderated by science communicator Lee Constable, featuring Karina Holden, Dr Adrian McCallum and Professor Matthew England. Together, they'll explore the science behind our changing polar regions, what scientists are discovering through their work in these environments, and why it matters to us all.

Before the program begins, Members are invited to arrive from 6pm to enjoy drinks and shared platters, with exclusive after-hours access to browse the Australian Museum Shop.
