Sarah Wang is a first-generation immigrant woman of colour currently residing on the unceded Coast Salish territories of Vancouver. She received her Bachelor of Arts Honours with high distinction in International Relations and History of Art from the University of Toronto, and her Graduate Certificate in Museum Studies from Harvard University.
With a focus on Visual Arts and museum institutions, Sarah currently manages the Public Tour program at the Vancouver Art Gallery, and occupies board positions on Roedde House Museum and CARFAC BC. Her ongoing research on demographics and decolonizing institutional practices in museum education, interpretation, and collections spans from North to South America, from the Harvard Art Museums, to the national museums of Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. From her professional practice centred on advocacy for equity-seeking communities—particularly those arts and cultural workers who identify as BIPOC and/or Deaf/disabled—she is very humbled to work with SEARA to advocate for artists and demand accountability from institutions.
