About the programme
The act of sharing knowledge often begins informally, a conversation in the studio, a brief demonstration, or a quiet observation of process. Yet, translating this instinctive sharing into a cohesive workshop requires a deliberate shift. It asks you to deconstruct your craft into a specific architecture that others can step into and actively experience.
When your materials and techniques are second nature, how do you translate them for someone encountering them for the first time? Which elements require structured instruction, and where must you hold space for open experimentation? How do you pace the learning narrative, and what is the ultimate intent for your participants?
Over the course of five weeks, we will rigorously explore these questions alongside your own creative vision. Together, we will articulate your workshop’s purpose, shape its structural narrative, test ideas through practical engagement, and refine the logistical realities required for delivery.
The objective is singular: to emerge with a clear, considered workshop model that is realistic to facilitate and remains deeply authentic to your personal practice.
From first idea to a workshop ready to deliver
-
1. Purpose
Define what you want to share, and what you want participants to experience.
-
2. Structure
Shape a clear arc for the session — how it opens, builds, and closes.
-
3. Practicalities
Work through materials, timing, and format — the details that make it deliverable.
-
4. Delivery
Bring it together into a workshop you feel ready to offer publicly.
Led by
Alice Bednarova
Alice Bednarova is a senior producer, designer, and creative facilitator with more than a decade of experience developing learning and engagement programmes with artists, designers, and cultural institutions.
Her work has included projects with the Victoria and Albert Museum, Tate, and the National Gallery, where she has worked across workshops, learning programmes, and participatory projects.
Today, Alice works independently with creative practitioners, helping them develop ways of sharing their practice with others. Her approach combines creative thinking with practical experience of designing workshops, from shaping an initial idea to considering how people will move through and experience it.
For this programme, she brings that experience into a small group setting, working closely with each participant to develop a workshop that is grounded in their own practice and realistic to deliver.
Aplications
First cohort — applications open, only three places.
Because the programme is limited to three participants, applications are reviewed individually. Selected applicants will be invited to a conversation before places are confirmed.
