While art schools nationally have faced cuts, and some the threat of closure, it is a very different story for the Adelaide Central School of Art.
Last week (29 January), Catherine King, Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government, announced that the Federal Government would fund the School to revive the decommissioned heritage building, Erindale, into a multi-use arts facility in the Glenside precinct.
