Workshops, etc.
Sara’s ongoing venture with Arts Lab – fusing her artist, educator, and peacebuilder practices – is to promote visual art as a means to develop holistic, creative and practical approaches to resolving conflict and strengthening communities.
She does this through an evolving programme of workshops. See here >>>
Sara also hosts live open studio events at the Rural Peace Hub, and regularly updates Arts Lab’s online Gallery and Art Matters.
