On Thursday, we celebrated the graduating cohort of 2024. Here are some of our favourite moments.
May 24
Last night we celebrated the recipients of the 2025 National Art School Fellowship, leading Australian artists Cressida Campbell AM and Guido Maestri. NAS Director and CEO Dr Kristen Sharp noted “both Campbell’s and Maestri’s life and work have an enduring impact on the arts in Australia and continue to inspire the students at the National Art School.”
Cressida Campbell said of the award “I am really honoured to become a Fellow of the National Art School. Most artists in any field have nervous temperaments and to start your creative life within the beautiful sandstone walls of the National Art School amongst supportive souls is a great start to wherever your life takes you.”
Guido Maestri stated “It’s an incredible honour to be added as a Fellow among such inspiring artists that I respect and have admired for so long. There is a momentum and energy that I got from my time at the National Art School that is still with me today.”
