Lauren Kang is currently a senior at Dartmouth College, majoring in Studio Art (with concentrations in photography and drawing) and minoring in Human Centered Design. She has been a member of Spare Rib—an intersectional feminist publication at the college—since her freshman year, having periodically taken on the position of Design Lead since joining.

Those in this role are in charge of managing all artists and designers as well as compiling the magazine each term. She also does costume design for the student-run theatre troupe Displaced Theatre Company, their most recent production being the musical Spring Awakening by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater. Furthermore, she is a Hopkins Center for the Arts Production Fellow, through which she is part of a student-cohort that promotes and facilitates the arts on campus. In this cohort, Lauren helps lead and manage different events, exploring the intersection of logistics and programming. An example of one of these events is Hanunder, a three-day student-arts showcase that occurred in the winter of 2024, for which she designed the frameworks of each evening and curated student-artists for the event. This past summer, she interned with NoKill Magazine, a fashion-sustainability publication that brings awareness to overconsumption and climate change through a fashion-based lens. She lives in Delmar, Maryland but hopes to further pursue the arts as well as fashion abroad post-graduation.
