Hi,
I was wondering if there are any schools in Australia that have certificate or degree programs in violin making?

Thanks

No,

There is a gentleman here in perth who is well respected in the local community who makes violins.

I dont even think they offer here in australia anything to do with lutherie qualifications. It use to be musical instrument manufacturing.

Hi Stephen,

The AGMS has produced some very nice Violins over the years, you won't get a Diploma , but you will get a lot of enjoyment and the tutorlidge of a great craftsman, musician and nice bloke.
