The support from our Friends helps us to continue telling the stories of Australia’s men and women who have served, and continue to serve our nation. The Friends program connects you with others who are committed to seeing the Memorial continue its role as Australia’s heart of commemoration.

Friends help us to:

• Deliver public programs and commemorative ceremonies
• Preserve, protect and develop over four million items and records in our National Collection
• Continue research into Australian military history
• Tell the stories that deserve to be heard

Friends Activities

Friends of the Memorial are invited to exclusive activities and events, from exhibitions launches and behind the scenes conversations with staff, to attendance of the Last Post Ceremony and Anzac Day and Remembrance Day commemorations. We know our Friends are invested in what we do at the Australian War Memorial and we are always looking out for ways to include them.
