In addition to working in a teaching role Louise facilities arts based initiatives for Local Government, Community Organisations and Festivals.

Community arts, is also known as "community-engaged" or "community-based art," and is characterised by an interaction or dialogue with the community.  Whether this is primarily focusing on forging relationships, producing public artworks or providing a creative opportunity, community based workshops generally involve a large number of people over a short scope of time.

Below are some examples of Community based projects Louise has 
facilitated.
