Media: Fly me to the moon … digital outreach program takes off
Flying Arts CEO Toni Palmer writes for InDaily about the story behind For Schools, from Mervyn Moriarty flying a small plane to teach art across regional and remote Queensland, to an animated Merv now guiding students through a digital program that reaches classrooms he never could in one little plane.
Toni also writes about why quality arts education matters, and how For Schools makes it easier for primary teachers to deliver, with professional artists taking students through Townsville, the Scenic Rim and the Torres Strait.
