Nick Jones is one of the eight artists featured in the Polar Museum's Painting the Poles temporary exhibition.

This exhibition presents eight contemporary artists whose works offer vantage points on a world in perpetual crisis. Rather than representing specific political events, or taking singular positions, each artist in this exhibition explores broader conditions of domination and conflict, as well as horizons for survival.

Join us on Saturday 21 June as we celebrate the world of insects! This year is even bigger than before, with a series of expert lectures from researchers in the Department of Zoology, expert-led mini-beast hunts around Cambridge, craft activities in the Museum PLUS live stick insects and butterflies in the Museum. All FREE - save the date!

We have four lectures during the day, with experts from the Department of Zoology. Please see the details on our website.
