Sydney Copy School 2023 will alternate between the new State Library and the Mitchell Library when it runs Monday to Friday the week after next.
The eight ionic columns of the State Library of New South Wales — an apt entrance for the twenty students keen to craft better, er, columns of copy. And to learn, from the nine masterclasses run by enriching tutors, many of the other essential skills of contemporary copywriting and career building.
Melbourne, which runs the week after, 10-24 Nov, will announce its venue soon.
Book now for Sydney and Melbourne, but fast, as it’s strictly first come, first served. Just $595 at copyschool.org
