MAPS – Media Arts in Public Schools earns national success. Corvallis media arts founder, Peter Rosten, surprised by project’s success. Scholarships – and a crack at fame – available

Corvallis school administrators weren’t too sure what to make of this fellow, who came to them about four years ago claiming to be a Hollywood producer who wanted to teach kids in the Bitterroot Valley school how to make movies.
