The world is your classroom


You've spent school being told to colour inside the lines. Here, we hand you a pen, a brush, a camera, a needle and thread, a keyboard, and even a pitch, to colour your own world. 

LCI Melbourne's Open House gives you a real look,not a brochure, not a slideshow,at what it's like to study Fashion & Costume Design, Fashion Styling, Graphic & Digital Design, Interior Design, Visual Arts or Business & Innovation here. Walk through the studios, watch a class in motion through the design lab windows, and talk to admissions about your pathway, your portfolio, and your next step. 

What's on: 

  • Campus Tour: see the studios, equipment, and spaces where the work actually happens. 
  • Studio Walk-Through: catch a glimpse of live classes in session as you pass through. Real work, real students. 
  • Admission Consultation: one-on-one time to map out entry requirements, programs, and your options. 
  • Info Session: get the full picture on programs, career outcomes, and what makes LCI's approach different. 

Who it's for: 

High school leavers who think differently, sketch in the margins, and are ready to find out if a creative career is actually for them.
