Dr. Sara Angel Guerrero-Mostafa has designed and commissioned 5,000+ public experiences, from live role-play games in museums to community data labs in public hospitals. The idea of ‘community curating’ is central to her approach, a method she uses to activate museums, libraries, hospitals, schools, galleries, arts districts, heritage centers, community service agencies, and independent arts spaces. Sara curates exhibitions, experiences, and educational programs influenced by socially-engaged art, ecological shamanism, museums, sociology, migration, and critical pedagogy. She is the author of “Panethnicity, postidentity and artist groups in Latin America and the Middle East” (2012) and Woodcraft (2025) a collection of eco-folkore tales about traditional ecological knowledge. In 2005, she developed the New New Yorkers program for the Queens Museum and Queens Library, a community resource that continues today, in collaboration with immigrant communities in New York City. As the first Deputy Director of Education & Community Engagement at Museum of the Moving Image, she developed New York City’s first public media game lab in a museum. Sara currently lives and works in Scotland, serving as Head of Learning & Civic Partnerships at V&A Dundee.
