I design and deliver engaging, accessible, and sustainable workshops that are tailored to support your mission and empower your audiences. Whether you're a museum, gallery, charity, school, or arts organisation, I offer inclusive sessions that encourage creative confidence, personal expression, and a sense of belonging.

With years of experience working across a wide range of community settings, I’ve facilitated workshops with participants aged 4 to 97—spanning children, young families, ethnically marginalised communities, people with SEND, mental health challenges, physical disabilities, and visual impairments. Each session is thoughtfully designed to adapt to different learning styles, creating safe, welcoming spaces that nurture curiosity, social inclusion, open dialogue, wellbeing and meaningful connections through sustainable, participatory textile and craft-based practices.

At the heart of my approach is collaboration. I work closely with you to co-create experiences that resonate with your community and values—whether it’s developing intergenerational projects, facilitating creative responses to bring your collections alive, or designing an entire programme that weaves together storytelling, skill-sharing, and sensory engagement.

Let’s co-create something truly memorable! A programme or workshops that invite your audiences in, deepen engagement, and leave a lasting imprint of creativity, care, and community.

“Alice helped us host a wonderful Wellbeing Day community event at the museum, running a fantastic workshop as part of which participants were encouraged to create their own mini textile sculptures to take away as objects that bring them comfort. The results were beautiful and the feedback from participants highlighted how enjoyable and therapeutic they found the experience. Alice was a real pleasure to work with from beginning to end; from her ideas and suggestions, to her planning and preparation, all the way to her warm, patient and supportive delivery. She contributed immensely to the Wellbeing Day being the wholesome, creative and relaxing experience we aimed for, and we cannot wait to work with her again!”

“I was incredibly impressed by Alice’s enthusiasm and professionalism in preparing and delivering the workshop making Textile Accessories at Leighton House. I was happy to see how quickly she found herself at home in our learning centre, from setting up the space and welcoming participants with warmth and excitement. I was particularly impressed by the research she had made on items in our own museum collection prior to the session, and how she included this knowledge in her presentation to ground the learning in our space. The participants thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and were proud over all the new techniques that they had learnt at the end of the day. We feel very excited by our collaboration with Alice Burnhope, and hope to find many more opportunities to work together again in the future."
