NAS Open Day 2020

The National Art School is Australia’s leading fine art school, with an unrivalled studio-based teaching model that has delivered a rich tradition of artistic practice and generations of world-renowned alumni for the past 100 years. Leading into the 21^st Century, NAS provides a progressive and holistic art education, and invites the public to join us on Open Day to share our creative community. 

In 2020, NAS Open Day is reconfigured so visitors can walk through campus in small, socially-distanced tour groups to meet teachers and students and watch live demonstrations across artistic disciplines, from ceramics to print making. The two-hour tours are designed to give an overview of the school as well as offering a detailed insight into the student experience. NAS’s outstanding courses and facilities provide students with in-depth face-to-face training with teachers who are successful practicing artists with decades of experience. 

In line with government guidelines, NAS practices strict hygiene and social distancing protocols in studios and across campus. Everyone is welcome at Open Day, from those considering art as a career to anyone simply curious about what happens behind the school’s historic sandstone walls. 

You have the questions; we have the answers.

Curious to know what student life is like at NAS, or unsure about what the next steps are after high school? See us at our course enquiry desk, schedule a one-on-one advice session or pop into a degree information session running all day at Open Day.

The best part? It’s all free.
