Former radio staffer launches Florida-themed art vending machine

Previous radio employee Meghan McKenna has founded Flamango Vending, a vending machine which features artwork form Palm Beach County, Florida, according to a WPTV news report.

Each piece in the vending machine is $50 or less and the machine moves all around West Palm Beach, according to the news outlet. To locate the machine, customers can follow colorful yard signs in the community. Each sign features a cartoon flamingo and copy that reads «Follow the Bird.»

The project is funded through a grant made possible through a partnership between the West Palm Beach Downtown Development Authority and the Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties. The goal, according to the news outlet, is to activate public spaces and engage people through community-led projects.
