Gallery Spotlight: Diving into Jaws: The Exhibition

Filmmaker Stephen Scarlata (Sharksploitation, 2023) and producer Paul Bales (Sharknado film series, 2013–2018) reveal how the success of Jaws (1975) spawned a new cinema feeding frenzy.

Without careful preservation, many precious and enlightening artifacts from the film industry would be lost to time. Across all 19 of our branches, ranging from acting to writing to artist representation, the Academy strives to preserve and document rare photographs, one-of-a-kind objects, iconic costumes, props and more. Join us as we share the Academy's efforts to preserve and nurture the legacy of film history.
