NCAT CREATE OPENS AN EXCITING NEW CHAPTER!


It is with great excitement that we announce that NCAT Create is now offering a Diploma of Visual Arts! 

NCAT Create students have long wished that the course could run across two years. At the end of their year with us they very often felt that they wanted more time to extend specialised skills in order to further prepare for life as visual artists. This meant they often went on to complete Visual Arts Diplomas elsewhere (whilst lamenting that they could not be at Create). 

We listened and we acted. As of 2020, the course will run as a two-year, part-time course, after which students will attain the CUA51115 Diploma of Visual Arts. This will enable them to explore skills, techniques and ideas in the first year and then extend, refine and specialise in the second year! As previously, the course will run on Thursdays and Fridays with an optional open studio access day on Tuesdays. This enables mature aged students access to employment and other commitments whilst studying. Course hours remain family friendly: 9:30am - 3pm.

Subjects include:
Year One
  • Art Studio
  • Life Drawing
  • Digital
  • Art in Context
Year Two
  • Art Studio
  • Drawn from Life
  • Digital
  • Contemporary Art Practice
Create has been a hugely popular course and we are confident that these changes will see it go from strength to strength whilst still retaining the core of it's success - amazing skills development, accessibility and nurture. Stay tuned for an exciting year! #ncatcreate
