Continuing Education | The College of Fine Arts
Continuing Education
Continuing Education builds on the dynamic undergraduate and postgraduate courses provided for
artists, designers, multi-media artists, historians and educators at COFA UNSW
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 programs are practising artists / designers and
experienced teachers and researchers.

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.
