We have been working with a fantastic group of 29 Year 12 students from across the UK, who have co-curated a new exhibition, starting on Sunday 29 September. The students were hosted by Clare College, Cambridge. It is a joint exhibition with the Museum of Archaeology & Anthropology (MAA). The exhibition runs throughout the Museum (and the MAA) and is based around the theme of ‘Our power over the natural world’. Do pop in to see the thoughts of these talented young people.
Why buy new clothes when old clothes can look at good as new? Come along to our sustainable clothes & textiles event, where we will have expert craft people on hand to share their textiles skills. You'll be able to convert old t-shirts into something new, re-style your current garments plus learn how to repair and mend your favourite items. We are delighted to be working with fashion students from The Cambridge School of Visual & Performing Arts - who will be on hand with all your styling tips!
