Support NICA
NICA is a national not-for-profit arts training organisation, registered as a cultural organisation and primarily funded by the Australian Government through the Department of Communications and the Arts. NICA’s courses are accredited by Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne.
In addition to the Bachelor Degree, NICA offers a Certificate III and Certificate IV in Circus Arts for students who are preparing for a career in the circus industry, or entry into the Bachelor of Circus Arts course. There are currently over 100 students enrolled across five year levels at NICA.
We need your support to pilot new scholarship opportunities and support all reaches of our circus community, regardless of social or economic circumstances.
Australia’s Centre of Excellence in contemporary circus arts training, offers the country’s only Bachelor of Circus Arts: the highest level of accredited circus training available in Australia. NICA’s program aims to push the boundaries of circus as an art form and create work which is innovative and inspiring.
• To create better access for those who cannot afford course fees or who face financial hardship while studying under the demands of elite circus.
• To create a scholarship for an Indigenous student to study at NICA.
• To continue to utilise circus as a tool for social change and make a difference to the lives of Indigenous people and young Australians living in regional and remote communities by providing skills and training.
