James Lejeune
Director, Co-Lead Creative
A passionate artist greatly inspired by historical, ethical, or environmental issues. I have found great joy in discovering how culture visually describes them to us.
James once felt that furthering himself academically was beyond him, so spent many years as a gardener enjoying outdoor work.
As a mature student he now holds a Bachelor of Arts in Illustration and a Master of Arts in Animation.
His work often uses a bold and expressive drawing style that creates a strong and clear message within the image. A full-time illustrator and artist, James is excited to be a Director of The Art Harbour - bringing the joy and benefits of visual art creation of a variety of groups in the community.
Co-Founder of The Art Harbour CIC.

Sarah Antoni
Passionate about bringing creative art services to community support groups, Sarah had the vision for this CIC as she become aware of the lack of earning opportunities for talented artists still in fairly early stages of establishment. Following her retirement from the financial services and IT sector she expanded her yoga teaching. It was here she has discovered many wonderful community support groups that would benefit from creative art events. Therefore she co-founded this CIC in order to bring together talented emerging artists and potential support services that could use valuable art experiences - to enhance well-being in so many ways
Co-Founder of The Art Harbour CIC.
