About the Masters of Fine Arts
This course challenges you to question and debate the role of the cultural sector in our society and your own place within it. It is designed specifically for those who already have active roles in the cultural sector who aspire to facilitate resilient, new leadership models. Our cohorts reflect the diversity and intersectionality of lived experience in Australia and course content draws on a wide range of knowledge domains, research, case studies and leadership practices.
