HOST A SCREENING

It’s easy to host your own film screening event

We are excited give you the opportunity to screen Her Name is Nanny Nellie at your museum, library or community group and encourage discussion about the representation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in cultural institutions.

The Australian Museum has already held film screenings for staff and public and a panel discussion exploring the Museum's reckoning with Australia’s colonial history and the pathways to reconciliation.

Showing the film is a great opportunity for your organisation:

  • To join the truth-telling movement, and begin a dialogue about how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and culture have been, and still are represented in museums. 

  • Encourage engagement with First Nations community to facilitate reclaiming narratives and truth-telling.

  • Encourage your audience to understand the role museums have in colonisation and critically think about how history has been presented in a museum.

There is a licence fee of $1000 and a licence must be requested and paid for before you advertise your event. Only the authorised version of the film sent to you by us can be shown.

As well as the screening licence, we'll provide you with promotional materials, a press kit and a discussion guide for hosting a conversation after the film.
