The girls will attend the national school during the July school holidays and the October school holidays.
The National Art School (NAS) is an independent visual arts institution dedicated to providing a rigorous and comprehensive education for aspiring artists.
Dating back to 1833, NAS has Australia’s longest continuing history as a public art school and has been housed in the grounds of the historic Darlinghurst Gaol in East Sydney since 1922. NAS provides fully accredited degree courses and senior school enrichment programs that embody the school’s educational philosophy of studio based learning under the supervision of practising artists.
The NAS HSC Intensive Studio Practice is endorsed by the NSW Education Standards Authority and has been offered by NAS to Year 11 Visual Arts students in all government and non-government high schools since 2000.
During the NAS HSC Intensive Studio Practice the students will work within a specialised discipline using a broad range of media and art making processes, refine their ability to interpret and evaluate their own and others’ artworks, engage in sustained critical reflection and evaluation, gain practical skills in preparing for, mounting and curating an exhibition. This is a wonderful opportunity for the students. An exhibition of the students’ works will be held at the conclusion of the course.
