Residency Courses

Develop and extend your creative skills over an intensive two or three-week period. NIDA Residencies are designed for people with a commitment to rigorous artistic development. Led by expert teaching artists with a wealth of industry experience, you’ll develop your craft in a supportive environment with like-minded peers. Class sizes are small, ensuring you receive dedicated attention throughout the residency. 

Courses in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane

Sydney courses are offered in multiple locations around the city, including NIDA’s award-winning Kensington campus.

Melbourne courses are offered at both NIDA’s modern Southbank studios and the historic Abbotsford Convent.

Brisbane Courses are delivered with the support of TAFE Queensland at the Southbank Campus.

NIDA acknowledges the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the lands on which we learn and tell stories, the Bidjigal, Gadigal, Dharawal and Dharug peoples, and we pay our respects to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders past and present.
