‘This Globe is Broken’. A poem about how the globe as an object is not neutral. A response to the colonial 1875 Jigsaw Globe on display in the Museum’s Globe Gallery.

In June 2020, the Museum Remix: Unheard project challenged the world to creatively interpret nine objects in the medium of sound.

Journey with us to the windswept Arctic, hear silenced figures given voice, and listen to the ballad of an unsung quarryman...

John Hodgson's poem Transition is inspired by a pair of prehistoric necklaces unearthed during excavations led by pioneering archaeologist Dorothy Garrod (1892-1968) at Mount Carmel in Israel in the 1930s.

The necklaces are now in the collection of the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. Garrod became the first female professor in the history of the University of Cambridge.

These poems were written by Year 8 students from Cromwell Community College as part of a Heritage Fund project called 'Pacific Currents'. They were written in response to objects of climate change and environmental threat on display at the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. The students worked with artist Hannah Jane Walker and staff at University of Cambridge Museums to write the poems as part of a Bronze Arts Award project. You can find a trail of the objects the students saw at the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology.
