ASPIRE
18 – 20 June 2025
The Australasian Registrars Committee (ARC) looks forward to welcoming you to the 2025 ARC Conference, which will take place between the 18-20th of June 2025, in Sydney Australia. Partnering with the Australian National Maritime Museum, the 2025 ARC Conference will centre on the theme ‘Aspire’, where we seek to share, discuss and contemplate current and future aspirations for our collections and the registration profession in our region.
We envision the theme ‘Aspire’ exploring new strategies, uncommon collaborations, and experimentation which has taken your work and the profession to a new level. Whether you are at the beginning or the end, we want to know how you are embracing the opportunities, challenges and vulnerabilities sparked by these new ventures. This theme aims to highlight the collegiality among registrars by encouraging open discussion, suggestions and support for our colleagues aspiring to new heights in their work.
The conference will feature two days of thought-provoking talks and an additional day for delegates to attend tours at some of Sydney’s museums and galleries. The 2025 ARC Conference will be a hybrid event, providing delegates both in-person and online attendance.
ARC is proud to partner with the Australian National Maritime Museum (ANMM) for our conference. ANMM is the national centre for maritime collections, exhibitions, experiences and knowledge. They are the custodians of historic vessels and a cultural hub for Australian maritime heritage and contemporary stories of the sea. The museum resides in Darling Harbour, on land traditionally owned by the Gadigal who found a rich source of fish and shellfish in the sheltered waters of Darling Harbour and Cockle Bay. The museum opened in 1991 and has welcomed millions of visitors from Australia and the world.
