Wollongong Conservatorium of Music is one of the largest of the seventeen regional conservatoriums in New South Wales. Supported by the NSW Department of Education, University of Wollongong, Wollongong City Council, and BlueScope WIN Community Partners Program, its magnificent location and surrounds make it one of the nation’s most attractive locations for music study and performance. For over forty years the Conservatorium has provided a wide range of instrumental and vocal tuition to students from the Illawarra, South Coast and Southern Highlands. Over 1500 students work with Conservatorium teachers each week either on site or in one of over two dozen programs operating in local schools. There are programs to suit all ages, from pre-school to senior citizens, and opportunities for all standards of performance, from beginner to advanced. In line with the NSW government’s resolve to make regional conservatoriums significant centres for arts education and performance, the Conservatorium is open and accessible to all members of the local community.
