Announcement: Successful Small Schools 2019

Flying Arts Alliance is proud to announce the successful applicants for the 2019 Small Schools Fund.

The Small Schools Fund allows schools with 50 or less students in regional and remote Queensland to apply for funds up to $5000 per year for curriculum linked projects.

The annual funding opportunity allows schools to work collaboratively with an experienced artist to plan and deliver a visual arts incursion of their choice. 

By combining multiple elements of the Australian School Curriculum the school and resident artist can work together to create arts rich experiences for their students and the wider school community. 

Thanks to the incredibly successful Make Art Big in Small Schools campaign, Creative Partnerships Plus 1 funding and generous support from Gandel Philanthropy, Flying Arts has been able to dedicate over $40,000 to cross curriculum arts incursions in 2019.

After reviewing and considering 24 applications in total, the following projects have been granted financial support from Flying Arts Alliance.
