Let's start with an undeniable fact: Queensland is a big state. From Texas in the south to the Torres Strait 3000 kilometres to the north, from Fraser Island on the east coast to Camooweal in the far west. How does a state museum make sure that people who'd have to travel by plane or four-wheel drive vehicle - or both - to visit on one of its museums, can benefit like everyone else?

Digital technology certainly helps but Queensland Museum Network in conjunction with Arts Queensland have been running a program for over 20 years that gives people all across the state an opportunity to access museum expertise face-to-face.

Do you have a story to tell? Or do you need a grant, advice or training? You need a Museum Development Officer.
