Opportunities to connect, resources, and more!

 Join our brand new Flying Arts Community Facebook Group

Designed for Queensland artists, artsworkers, arts educators and those that support them, it is our hope that this new group will provide even more ways for our extended Flying Arts family to stay connected and sustained, during the current crisis, but also into the future.

Many artists, artsworkers and educators who work in regional and remote Queensland already contend with the tyranny of distance. A Facebook group that helps to connect those who already work in isolation has been a long-term plan here at Flying Arts.

Now more than ever, we invite you all to come together under the Flying Arts banner to share resources and opportunities, tell stories of personal artistic triumph (and disaster!), and connect with our broader Flying Arts community.

Join the group
