Sara Noori is an artist and educator whose work explores identity, collaboration, and the body, both individual and collective, as a host for culture, memory, and creative survival. They have organized and facilitated public programs including Family Day at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; led public and private art classes at elementary, middle, and high schools throughout the Chicago area; taught art at the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago; and collaborated with the Community Belonging program at the Speed Art Museum in Louisville, KY.

In 2023, Noori was invited to co-create a site-specific mural titled Homecoming for Amy Sherald’s Portrait of Breonna Taylor: In the Garden at the Speed Art Museum. As an arts educator they have presented as part of the 2026 Leonardo/ISAST LASER Talks in Louisville, and worked with the Backside Learning Center at Churchill Downs, Dreams With Wings, First Hour Grief, Fund for the Arts, Frazier History Museum, and in school classrooms supporting students, participants, and communities through material exploration, collaborative making, and confidence-building practices. Across institutions and community spaces, their work prioritizes care, adaptability, and the cultivation of environments where creative growth can take root.
