1 YOUNG ARTIST PROGRAMS<br />
14 PARTICIPANTS<br />
“I loved everything about<br />
the program.”<br />
– Art Enquirer Participant<br />
<strong>Flying</strong> <strong>Arts</strong> hoped to deliver two Young Artist programs in <strong>2020</strong>, however<br />
experienced challenges due to COVID-19. <strong>Flying</strong> <strong>Arts</strong> and the Institute of<br />
Modern Art (IMA) successfully collaborated to present the fourth edition of<br />
Art Enquirer in <strong>2020</strong>, however the program was delivered to participating<br />
senior school students through online delivery. This program engaged 14<br />
senior school students from July to August <strong>2020</strong>.<br />
Due to the impact of COVID-19, Art Innovation was unfortunately<br />
postponed to 2021.<br />
“I really loved talking with people<br />
who have careers within the art<br />
industry so that I know what I<br />
might be leaning towards doing<br />
after high school.”<br />

ART ENQUIRER<br />
ART ENQUIRER WITH IMA (ONLINE) 6 - 10 July<br />
Institute of Modern Art, Brisbane<br />
Art Enquirer ran online for the first time in <strong>2020</strong>, and was received positively<br />
by interested parties with engagement and participation increasing.<br />
The digital delivery of the program increased engagement from regional<br />
Queensland participants who logged on to the program from their home or<br />
local community centre via online platforms.<br />
Through this program, participants engaged with a broad range of art<br />
practices, art museums, galleries, and online platforms to investigate<br />
arts sector career pathways. This year’s Art Enquirer participants were<br />
successful in thinking and write critically about contemporary art, with<br />
IMA publishing a magazine of the participants work at the conclusion of the<br />
opportunity.<br />
IMA and <strong>Flying</strong> <strong>Arts</strong> plan to run Art Enquirer online again in 2021.<br />
