Science Gallery Melbourne’s Friday Night Socials are free parties where you can explore the latest exhibition against a backdrop of immersive performance acts and live DJ sets. Food and drinks are available for purchase.

The SCI-FI: Mythologies Transformed  exhibition uncovers new perspectives on science fiction by highlighting connections between the genre and Asian philosophy and mythology.

After a five-year hiatus, Asia TOPA returns to Melbourne in early 2025, with a lineup of futuristic performance art, live music, video art screenings and participatory installations.
