NIDA spring holiday program

Coming to a city or suburb near you. NIDA Open is inviting children and young people on a journey of creative exploration over the spring holidays, with performing arts classes designed to excite and inspire.

Our popular short courses will be available at locations across Sydney and Australia, with introductory to advanced classes in everything from musical theatre and filmmaking to drama classes and TV presenting at the ABC.

NIDA’s latest permanent location,NIDA Melbourne, will also play host to our spring holiday courses, in addition to venues in Adelaide, Brisbane, Cairns, Canberra, Launceston, Newcastle, Perth and Townsville.

Explode into pop icon status, discover your inner actor, create stunning films, venture into new worlds, or find the creative path that you’ve been searching for. School holidays are made for new and exciting experiences, as well as the furthering of personal interests. NIDA Open’s spring holiday classes offer all of that and much more.

Head of NIDA Open, Tricia Ryan, commented: ‘Children and young people are naturally creative. We’re providing them with the expert classes to further their potential and help them to find their artistic voice – all while they have fun in energetic, engaging environments at locations across Sydney.

‘We bring together passionate experts from the industry to teach our holiday programs, so participants are learning more than creative expression and performing arts, they’re also seeing passion and artistry at work. We’re looking to develop, inspire and create new stories and tell existing ones to bring a touch of magic to these spring school holidays’.

‘In addition to our main campus in Kensington, courses in Sydney will also be running at venues in Bankstown, Chatswood, Carriageworks, Campbelltown, Parramatta, Rouse Hill, Mosman, Taronga Zoo and ABC Studios.’

With credentials in theatre, TV and film, NIDA Open tutors deliver inspiring experiences with every class, for the varied artistic interests and skills of students.
