Celebrate 50 years of Jaws with a visit to Jaws: The Exhibition at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles, California.

Opened on September 14, 2025, this groundbreaking exhibition marks the first large-scale museum exhibition dedicated to a single film at the Academy Museum and the largest exhibition ever mounted celebrating Steven Spielberg's legendary 1975 blockbuster. Featuring nearly 200 original artifacts, rare behind-the-scenes materials, interactive experiences, production equipment, props, costumes, artwork, promotional materials, and memorabilia, the exhibition offers an unprecedented look at the making and lasting legacy of one of the most influential films in cinema history.

Follow the story of Jaws from its iconic opening moments through its suspenseful finale as the exhibition guides visitors through seven immersive galleries. Highlights include Steven Spielberg's annotated script, original storyboards, concept artwork by Joe Alves, John Williams's handwritten music materials, behind-the-scenes production photographs, rare Super 8 footage filmed by Spielberg, filming equipment used during production, and original props from the movie.

Among the most notable artifacts on display are Quint's fighting chair, Hooper's shark cage, components from the Orca, the famous "Beach Closed" sign, the Ben Gardner prop head used in the film's unforgettable jump scare sequence, and recreations of iconic Amity Island locations. Visitors can also experience interactive exhibits that demonstrate the famous dolly zoom effect, operate a replica mechanical shark, and explore the creative techniques used to bring the film to life.

The exhibition also examines the cultural impact of Jaws, which became the first true summer blockbuster and forever changed Hollywood filmmaking. Directed by Steven Spielberg and featuring unforgettable performances by Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, and Robert Shaw, Jaws remains one of the most celebrated and influential films ever produced.

Jaws: The Exhibition is presented at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles and remains on view through July 26, 2026.
