About

The National Communication Museum (NCM) is a brand-new museum in Hawthorn based in a historic 1930s exchange building, parts of which are still operational, on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people.

Situated adjacent to Swinburne University in an emerging STEAM precinct and designed by award winning architects Carr design, NCM's visitors can explore the technologies that empower us to shape our future.

By engaging in conversation, risk taking and experimentation, NCM provides a welcoming space for addressing challenging questions in an ever-evolving landscape of technological disruption and change.

Closure notice: Exhibition changeover

Please note: NCM will be closed from 15 September– 31 October as we change over our ground floor exhibition spaces. We’ll be sharing special behind-the-scenes peeks throughout the install period, and can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on, ahead of our grand opening on 1 November.
