With Habda Rashid, our Senior Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art.

Saturday 16 November, 10am - 4pm. Free, drop-in

November’s Saturday opening is all about maps, as we host the University’s Dr Sara Caputo for a very special exploration in partnership with the Being Human Festival. Explore the fascinating history of a device we often take for granted, and discover new ways of visualizing our place in the world. 

What’s on?

Why is there a fin whale skeleton in Cambridge? What can we learn from our Dodo skeleton? What did Darwin collect here and on the Voyage of the Beagle, and what can these collections tell us about him and is ideas on evolution? Hear these stories and more on a guided tour around the Museum of Zoology.

Tours are FREE. Please book ahead.
