Sara Goodman is the lead dye studio instructor at Sanborn Mills Farm. She was instrumental in the conception and creation of this state of the art teaching facility.
Sara is a textile artist, that is, she is a dyer, weaver, spinner, stitcher, surface designer and lover of all things with color and cloth. She maintains a studio in Center Harbor, NH on Squam Lake.
Over 20 years ago Sara stopped using chemical dyes and dedicated herself to using only natural dyes in her work. She felt the times demanded a closer examination of process and an effort to do whatever she could to work sustainably in terms of her methods and materials.
Her work has been featured in major textile art publications and shown in national and international exhibitions such as Julie’s Artisans Gallery in New York, the Cambridge Artists’ Collective in Massachusetts, the Textile Society of America conference held at SCAD in Savannah, Georgia and Living with Craft at the Sunapee Craft Fair in New Hampshire.
