Explore the Portia Zvavahera: Zvakazarurwa exhibition out of hours. Music provided by DJ Bosslady. The Garden Kitchen café will be open for special cocktails and food.
You will also be able to do some late night shopping ahead of the festive period in the Kettle’s Yard shop and pick up special Christmas gifts for friends and family.
Explore the exhibition, join one of our workshops and talks, soak up the vibes of our music and visuals and enjoy tasty food and drinks.
In partnership with Cambridge AntiRacism Forum and Cambridge School of Visual and Performing Arts.
Why buy new clothes when old clothes can look at good as new? Come along to our sustainable clothes & textiles event, where we will have expert craft people on hand to share their textiles skills. You'll be able to convert old t-shirts into something new, re-style your current garments plus learn how to repair and mend your favourite items. We are delighted to be working with fashion students from The Cambridge School of Visual & Performing Arts - who will be on hand with all your styling tips!
The lights will highlight some of the Garden’s most beloved features, such as the Fountain, Lake and Glasshouse Range, and create special experiences around the rest of the Garden. There will be new, original installations that are unique to the Garden, as well as the return of some of last year’s most popular pieces such as the light tunnel and lilies on the Lake.
The Café will be part of the trail with warm offerings, and food stalls halfway around the route will be serving hot drinks and light bites to revive spirits and warm up any chilly fingers!
