In honour of our beautiful Jacobean building, originally Cambridge’s Free School, we’re exploring everything 17th-century, from historic scientific instruments to the secrets of our building. We’re open all day with family activities, curator talks and behind-the-scenes tours. Forsooth, gentles, it will be a merry meeting! 

 

Programme : 

The subscription ticket gives you entry to all fifteen Chamber Music concerts over the year, saving up to £135. Subscription tickets will be available to collect at the first concert that you attend.

Ever fancied sketching among telescopes, globes, and centuries-old scientific instruments? Step into Cambridge University's home for the history of science for a relaxed and creative evening.

This is the third Whipple Scribble session. Whether you're a seasoned artist or simply curious to try something new, all abilities are welcome. It's free to join, open to all, and a great way to connect with fellow creatives in the Cambridge area.

What is an orrery? Why is the clock chiming 13? Why would you collect and display a set of plaster horses’ teeth, some green spectacles and several hundred pocket calculators? 

Join us for a tour of the Whipple’s collection in 10 objects, featuring spectacular instruments, fascinating scientific stories, and links to some of Cambridge’s most famous names.
