Housed in the historic walls of the old Darlinghurst Gaol, the National Art School is the oldest, most prestigious visual arts institute in Australia, with origins that can be traced back to 1843. It has a rich tradition of artistic practice and many well-known alumni, from Max Dupain and Margaret Olley to John Olsen, Fiona Hall, Reg Mombassa, Joan Ross and Lucy Culliton.
You don't have to be a student to visit the NAS Gallery. Housed in a former cell block in the heart of the campus, it is one of Sydney’s most well-appointed and distinctive exhibition spaces, hosting ambitious group and solo exhibitions from local and international artists.
