She was an Honorary Associate of the National Review of Live Art (NRLA), an annual festival of live art festival that took place in Glasgow from 1979-2010. Ann presented a number of works at at the festival, including Deja Vu (2005), Jamais Vu (2005). Seagrave worked as a visiting lecturer in the National College of Art and Design in Dublin and Limerick School of Art and Design. In 2004 Seagrave began a 3 year Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) Fellowship at the University of Ulster in Belfast. This resulted in an online database created by Seagrave called, 'Why Me? Artists' Use of Self-Image.'This features the work of 340 artists that use 'their own physical presence within the artworks they present.' Alongside a number of live body-based works, some of which use highly physical and choreographed actions, Seagrave made a number of performances for camera and installation works.
