With our partners we’ve planned exhibitions, performances, talks and tours, hands-on workshops and all kinds of fun for families.
The full programme will be announced on 26 August so be sure to have a browse and check out what we’ve got for you.
Throughout the next few months we’ll keep you posted about what you’ve got to look forward to.
But for now here’s a taster of the range of events to look out for…
The Campsite at Curating Cambridge
Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 October
A two-day extravaganza where museums step out of their normal homes and into a pop-up venue with a difference…
It’s the first weekend of half term and The Campsite has pitched up in
Cambridge to celebrate in style. A pop-up collection of performances and activities created by artists in collaboration with each of the University’s museums and the Botanic Garden. Join us at Christ’s Pieces (the Green between Grafton Centre and Downing Street bus station) for two days of fun, discovery and surprises.
A big game night
21 November
The Museum of Zoology and The Polar Museum bring you a night of entertainment with our very own game shows, Just a Minnow & Q-Ice. Watch as our contestants battle out for museum domination! Points will be given for knowledge, perseverance and of course for pure
entertainment value.
