🎨 History you can feel, smell, and sing! 🦚✨

We recently wrapped up an incredible 4-week sensory sculpture project with the brilliant students at and Cricket Green School, inspired by the historical artefacts at the !

Led by our amazing facilitators Lee and Zoe, the children explored local history through their senses - crafting everything from gingerbread-scented Modroc biscuits to ultra-soft teddy bear pillows and glittery peacock feathers. Every piece came together to form a beautiful, interactive curtain sculpture full of rich textures and scents.

We love what the teachers had to say about the impact: 💬 “The workshops were very thoughtfully designed and delivered to be inclusive for all students...” - Serafina Min, Linden Lodge School 💬

“Everything was amazing and so organised... I think every class should have a chance to be part of it.” - Foteini Prodromidou, Cricket Green School

A massive thank you to Wimbledon Museum funders, The Wimbledon District Nursing and Midwifery Benevolent Society, for making this inclusive arts programming possible!

From Manchester to London with a suitcase and a passion for art! 🎨✨

As part of our celebrations, we’re looking back with GabbyJahanshahi-Edlin ( ) Before she was changing the world, she was here with us, facilitating magic!

Gabby remembers her time at Artburst as “life enhancing and soulful,” from the joy of collecting materials to the pride on children’s faces after a performance of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. 🍫🍭

In Gabby’s words: “It’s incredible, in this age of funding pressures, that Artburst is 20 years old! It’s a testament to the brilliant work of the team and the wonderful children.”

We couldn’t agree more. Here’s to the facilitators who make it all possible! 🥂💖

✨🎨 One more memory, this time from one of our recent interns, the lovely Daisy! Daisy joined us from 🎭 as a work placement in late 2025, and has since been freelancing with us as an assistant in between her studies! We’re so glad to have been a part of her facilitation development journey, and look forward to seeing her go even further! 😊✨

This April is our 20 year anniversary! 💐

To mark this ✨special✨ occasion we’ve asked our wonderful interns, freelancers, staff, parents and participants all about their favourite Artburst memories. 💕

Today we have a lovely submission from Hanifa Hussain who's conection with Artburst spans over a decade. Here is what Hanifa had to say about her time with us:

"I’m Hanifa, I am currently working in a daycare but I also freelance with Artburst. I am coming up to my third year working with artburst. My connection with Artburst spans more than a decade. As a child, I attended their workshops, not knowing how much those early creative moments would shape me.

At the age of 18, I returned as an intern. This time seeing the work from the inside, helping to create the same inspiring environments I once loved. After my internship, stepping into freelance work with them felt like a natural progression. Looking back, it feels like a full-circle journey: from participant to intern to freelancer. Artburst has been a constant thread in my life, guiding my growth and reminding me why creativity matters.

Artburst has given me many opportunities to grow. Allowing me to thrive in what I’m good at and what I enjoy doing. One of my favourite memories with Artburst would probably be helping out in the office with prepping workshop materials and editing videos on premiere pro. Artburst has allowed me to take part in many different projects and training to help me further develop. My favourite was being able to go to the Lego headquarters. I had the opportunity to experience something that not a lot of people get to experience. I also really enjoyed the workshop we did at old palace primary school during Easter. It was nice to come back and run a workshop in the primary school I used to attend."
