Join us for an evening of art, talks, crafts, zines, poetry readings, live music, and more!
Inspired by the Fitzwilliam Museum exhibition, ‘Islanders: The Making of the Mediterranean’, the theme for Love Art After Dark 2023 is ‘Myths and Legends’ - exploring the power of stories, passed down through generations, to strengthen connections between people and places.
Love Art After Dark 2023 is co-organised with the Fitzwilliam Museum Society and has been made possible by contributions from the Marlay Group Fund.

Museums like ours contain specimens that belonged to scientific heroes such as Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace, who developed the answers to the question of how species evolved. Their stories have been well told; however, they did not work alone. What’s often missing from the histories are the countless local and Indigenous experts who contributed so much to our understanding of the natural world, by collecting specimens for the likes of Darwin and Wallace.
Join us at Kettle’s Yard to celebrate the opening of our next exhibition Paint Like the Swallow Sings Calypso. Explore the galleries after hours and enjoy a drink with friends.

Can we change our behaviours to lessen the impacts of the fashion industry on both people and the environment?
The fashion industry is having a massive impact on the environment. Making clothes creates 10% of our carbon emissions across the globe. Production uses huge amounts of water, and the chemicals involved pollute rivers and streams.
Join us for a fun, practical evening about sustainable fashion. Learn ways of mending or refashioning clothes, and get top tips on how to be greener in our clothing choices with mini-workshops, drop-in activities and more.
Visit the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology galleries after-hours. View their latest exhibition COLOUR: Art, Science and Power and enjoy activities inspired by the themes of the exhibition.
An incredibly exciting chance to experience the museum after hours and explore Defaced! Money, Power, Conflict, whilst enjoying drop-in creative workshops, live performances, and drinks.
