2023 Annual Appeal

by

The National Art School is a 21st Century Art School committed to creating pathways to education and professional development for our students and emerging artists. We need your support to assist students throughout their entire NAS journey; from HSC Art to NAS graduate and postgraduate study, and to propel our alumni to become leading international artists.

As we approach the end of financial year, we invite you to make a tax-deductible donation to the National Art School and support the next generation of Australian artists

The National Art School welcomes support of all levels, and we are delighted to acknowledge individual donations of $1,000 and above as part of the NAS Patron Program.

All donations over $2 are fully tax deductible.

In June, we celebrate World Pride Month. Like many other culturally significant times, it’s a month that’s meaningful to our community and the Oxford precinct we are part of.

In 2015, NAS alum Todd Fuller (@fuller_todd) sent members of the public black and white drawings depicting two men engaged in a passionate kiss. The participants were encouraged to respond to the image by colouring in the figures, with the resulting images compiled by Fuller into a mixed media video animation.

Fuller gifted this work to the National Art School Collection, a collection that performs a major role within the National Art School as both a teaching resource and a historical record. Visit our website to find out more about the works in our collection.
