How to Enquire, Subscribe or Visit the National Art School Campus

The National Art School (NAS) at nas.edu.au gives you three direct ways to engage: use Enquire to contact the school about studying, use Subscribe to receive updates, and use the Visit section to plan a trip to the Darlinghurst campus, including its gallery, café and library. All three are accessible from the main site navigation. The campus sits on Gadigal land in Darlinghurst, Sydney, on the heritage-listed site of the former Darlinghurst Gaol.

Enquire: For Prospective Students

The Enquire option is the entry point for anyone with questions before applying or enrolling. It suits prospective students who want to ask about:

• Study Art pathways — Bachelor of Fine Art, Bachelor of Fine Art (Hons), Doctor of Fine Art, Short Courses and High School Courses
• Studio-based learning, specialist facilities and small cohort sizes
• What life at the school is like, from current students or staff

NAS describes its teaching as hands-on, studio-based tuition led by a faculty of practising artists. If your question is about a specific course, check the Study Art section first so your enquiry is targeted.

Subscribe: For Updates

The Subscribe option signs you up for school updates. Use it if you want to hear about courses, events or news without submitting a full enquiry. The site lists Subscribe as a standalone navigation item, separate from Enquire — so choose Subscribe for ongoing information and Enquire when you need a direct answer.

Visit: Campus, Gallery, Café and Library

The Visit section covers practical trip planning. NAS is an inner-city campus in Darlinghurst, Sydney, and the site highlights four things to see:

Because the campus is a working art school, check the Visit pages for current opening details before travelling rather than assuming access at all hours.

Why the Campus Is Worth a Visit

NAS has been training artists for over a century, and the campus connects generations of makers. Alumni named on the site include Charles Blackman, Margaret Olley, Max Dupain, Reg Mombassa, Cressida Campbell and Wendy Whiteley OAM. A visit lets you see the studio environment, galleries and facilities that support this kind of practice — useful context whether you are considering study or simply interested in Australian art.
