Events

Musical

The biennial Academy Musical is a highlight of the Grace Arts Academy calendar, providing students with the opportunity to be part of a large-scale theatrical production in a professional venue alongside their peers. Working with Academy staff and industry professionals, students gain valuable experience in rehearsals, production processes, and live performances while developing their skills as performers, musicians, technicians, and collaborators. The ‘Grace Musical’ has a decades-long legacy, known for its high standards and production value. 

Tours

Every two years, Grace Arts Academy offers students the opportunity to participate in a tour experience designed to extend their learning through both performance and arts immersion opportunities. Across Dance, Drama, Film, Music, and Visual Art, students engage in workshops, masterclasses, behind-the-scenes tours, performances, and other unique arts experiences that inspire creativity, build connections, and broaden their understanding of the creative industries, both in Australia and across the globe.

Instrumental Music Camp

Provides students in our core ensembles with an opportunity to develop their musical skills, strengthen ensemble connections, and begin the year with a shared focus and purpose. Through specialist workshops, rehearsals, and collaborative experiences, students build confidence, refine their musicianship, and develop the teamwork and relationships that underpin the Academy’s ensemble culture.

Musical Camp (Biennial)

Students will engage in a rehearsal intensive in the much-anticipated Musical Camp. This time of bonding and rehearsing, is where we truly see the show come together. 

Arts Showcases

The Grace Arts Academy Showcases are an annual celebration of the creativity, dedication, and artistic excellence of students across Dance, Drama, Music, Visual Art, and Film. These events provide students with authentic opportunities to perform, exhibit, and present their work to the College and wider community while developing confidence, professionalism, collaboration, and creative skills.

More than a series of performances and exhibitions, the Arts Showcases are transformative learning experiences. Students work alongside peers and staff to present high-quality artistic outcomes, developing resilience, teamwork, stagecraft, and industry-relevant skills while celebrating their creative growth throughout the year.
