QUT Art Museum
A PROGRAM FOR SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
WED 10 JUL 6PM TO 8PM
This evening is a must for senior high school students interested in a career in the visual arts. They will hear from young QUT graduates, who will chart the path that led to their exciting careers. We also welcome teachers and parents along to this free program. Information about study options in Creative Industries at QUT will also be available.
This year, following the panel discussion, we will be holding individual consultations for high school students, who can book in to speak with either one of the speakers or a Creative Industries Faculty staff member. Places are limited so we encourage students to register their interest early.
6 - 7pm: Panel discussion
7 - 8pm: Individual consultations
ART/WORK Panellists:
Courtney Coombs (artist/curator)
Maree Di Pasquale (art fair manager)
Tess Maunder (art writer/curator)
Richard Stride (artist/artworker)
