NAS Alumni Project Call Out
The Archives at the National Art School is delighted to be working on the NAS Alumni Project, a complete list of alumni and the years they attended NAS.
Currently a work-in-progress, this list will become an important resource for the school, particularly in this – the 100th anniversary of the school’s presence on this site.
If you graduated from (or attended) NAS, and your name or the name of someone you know is not on this list, or your name / the dates of attendance at NAS are incorrect, please get in touch!
