AboutAbout the lab
Moving between the field and research to explore co-creative arts practice
Assistant Professor Saya Makihara specializes in arts management and cultural policy, and also studies collaborative/participatory evaluation of cultural projects.
Currently, her main focus is how co-creative arts practice with people who have mental illness or disabilities changes the awareness of people who are not themselves living with those conditions.
In community-partnership arts projects and the Hall Management Engineer training program, she is also in charge of operations, student supervision, and evaluation.
