NIDA’s Integration of First Nations Teaching: The BFA Performance Makers Subject

Six smiling people sit on a wooden floor in a room, holding paperwork and playing a tile-based board game. Some hold game pieces and cards, while others display completed forms. A TV and chairs are visible in the background.

Discover how NIDA’s first-year Bachelor of Fine Arts students are embracing First Nations teachings in the new Performance Makers unit! Guided by Uncle Matthew Doyle and Head of First Nations, Travis Cardona (Acting, 2008), students engage in collaborative storytelling, explore Connection to Country and learn deep listening skills.
