Films shown in IMAX® theatres are designed to educate and enlighten as much as they are to entertain.

They offer educators a powerful teaching tool that is easily integrated into existing curriculum and they provide students with unique and exciting opportunities to explore new worlds and new ideas.

IMAX® films focus on a broad range of subjects covering the environment, nature, geography, the arts, technology and space exploration, to name a few.

In addition to meeting recognized educational standards, IMAX® films and education programs are often produced in collaboration with prestigious organisations, including the Smithsonian Institution, NASA, National Geographic, WGBH/Nova and Discovery.
