Continuing Education

COFA Continuing Education builds on the dynamic undergraduate and postgraduate programs provided for fine artists, designers, multi-media artists, art historians and art educators at COFA UNSW. For courses in 2010, please read the information on future courses.

Courses are both practical and infused with theory. You will learn new skills and techniques, and appreciate how these skills have been used or developed by artists. You will be encouraged to find your own mark as you extend your ideas and practice. 

All teachers in the Continuing Education programmes are practising artists / designers and experienced teachers and researchers.


Current Short Courses on offer
COFA Continuing Education provides a range of Short Courses in both Studio and Digital Arts that enable you to:

• develop skills
• encounter new ideas and ways of working
• explore your creativity
• sharpen your critical awareness
• reinvigorate your art or design practice.

Masterclasses/ Workshops

Occasionally COFA offers a Masterclass or Workshop for professionals in a particular discipline, eg. Textiles, Printmaking, Drawing, Ceramics, etc. These might occur around a specialized exhibition or conference in Sydney, or a visiting master artist. We will put details of all such courses on this site as they become available. COFA is open to discuss with other institutions the provision of master classes in conjunction with their events.
