Driven by a passion to connect people with their creative potential, Rebecca also designs and facilitates community art projects through her new public art initiative, Forging Commons, which ignites the participants' capacity for active agency; building positive identity, pride and ambition to encourage cultural contribution helping to rejuvenate community collaboration.
