121 schools. One shared goal.
Every child deserves access to the arts, no matter where they live.
For Schools is the new visual arts education program created to give primary school students across Queensland access to high-quality, curriculum-aligned arts learning. Together, we can help change the lives of children in regional Queensland through access to the arts.
The 121 Campaign
We know that for some of Queensland’s smallest and most remote schools, even a modest subscription can be out of reach. That is why we have launched the 121 Campaign (pronounced ‘one-two-one’)
The goal is to raise enough support to provide For Schools to 121 regional, rural and remote Queensland primary schools, ensuring that cost and distance do not determine whether a child has access to a great arts education.
Connecting students with Queensland artists
Through For Schools, students will connect with professional Queensland artists, explore creative practice and engage with visual arts learning designed to support teachers and bring the curriculum to life.
Why your support matters
For many regional schools, access to specialist visual arts teachers and professional arts experiences can be limited. Your support can help change that.
By sponsoring a school, you can put For Schools directly into the hands of teachers and students who may otherwise miss out. Every contribution brings one school closer to 121.
Be part of it
Whether you are an individual, business, foundation or community organisation, we invite you to be part of this important Queensland initiative. Help give 121 schools access to creativity, confidence and connection.
Because where a child lives should never determine their access to the arts.
Creativity is a way of thinking and being and remains an essential skill for our ability to connect, adapt and innovate. It’s time to acknowledge the value of the Arts within schools and the immeasurable impact it has on developing young humans.
