Welcome to our First Nations Community Centre! 🖤💛❤️

Our First Nations Community Centre Coordinator, Michael Higgins, has been working hard to make this space a reality: “I am excited to provide a community space at AIM that is comfortable for all First Nations people (and visitors) to visit, relax, have a yarn, listen or read.”

You can find this cozy space in the Melbourne campus library. If you’re an AIM First Nations student studying at our Sydney & Melbourne campuses, you can reach out to Michael for help sourcing the support you might need whilst studying at AIM.

A big thank you to Australia's Mary Poppins, @stefaniejones, for hosting a masterclass for our Melbourne Music Theatre students today. It was wonderful having you spend so much quality time with our students alongside our Melbourne Music Theatre Course Convener, Stephen Gray.

In Mary Poppins' words it was Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Advice from rock-n-roll hall of fame! 🔥

@theofficialsting's longtime guitarist (and accomplished player in his own right) @dominicmillerofficial visited AIM Sydney to share some rock and roll stories and invaluable advice with our first-year performance students. It was a fantastic opportunity to learn about building an amazing music career, staying open to different styles, and why you should never say no to a gig.

Here’s what our students learned (with a guest appearance from Dom himself) 👀

We hosted The Voice at AIM Melbourne 🤯

The Voice Australia came to our Melbourne campus to hold a round of auditions for their next season! It was amazing seeing all the talent grace our halls.

The music industry has so many avenues and ways to make your music career. At AIM, we provide the skills to boost your professional music career, including aceing a debut on a show like The Voice! No matter what you study - Contemporary, Musical Theatre or Classical Voice - AIM is the best pathway to music success.

We can't wait to see what happens in the next round of @thevoiceau! We hope to see some AIMer's making waves 🌊

We had a blast at @midsummafestival! 🌈

With Midsumma wrapping up in Melbourne, and @sydneyworldpride kicking off soon, we wanted to celebrate our AIM students, alumni, and staff who marched in the Midsumma Pride March.

It was amazing seeing our AIM community dancing, smiling, and waving through the St Kilda streets celebrating and showing solidarity with the AIM LGBTQIA+ Community. 🏳️‍🌈

Congratulations to the @theacmf National Songwriting Competition winner!

We are a proud sponsor of the nationwide ACMF National Songwriting Competition. Every year, students from schools across Australia are invited to enter their original songs. serenachu_ won the opportunity to record four of her songs in AIM Sydney studios with the support of our AIM Students.

We can't wait to hear the final tracks!
