SUMMARY:November Walking Tour: Hidden Cambridge and the Museum of Cambridge
DESCRIPTION:Journey through the streets of Hidden Cambridge to the Museum of Cambridge \nA walking tour for local residents who have always meant to explore the side streets and alleyways but never quite had the time\, as well as for visitors to our city who want to discover more of Cambridge beyond King’s Parade. \nJoin us as we explore Hidden Cambridge\, taking in the streets\, alleys\, buildings and history of the people living in the area between St John’s College and Quayside — the centre of trade that made the town a thriving inland port long before the first students arrived — before crossing the river to Castle Hill and the location of the Roman settlement of Duroliponte\, the 2\,000 year-old forerunner of the city we know today. \nThe 90-minute tour will end at the Museum of Cambridge. While it may not resemble a Greek temple\, this small\, independent museum located in a former coaching inn has a big story to share. Suffused with the history of the local people of Cambridge\, it contains an eclectic collection of everyday objects used in day-to-day life\, from vacuum cleaners and washing machines to false teeth and mantraps! \nThe tour will be led by a Cambridge Badged Guide\, who will give their time for free – reflecting their high regard for both the Museum of Cambridge and the local history of our city. \nTickets are available at £10.00 per person\, which includes an annual pass to the Museum\, from the Visit Cambridge website. \nChildren under 12 years of age can attend for free when accompanied by an adult. \nThe Round ChurchPortugal PlaceThrough the Door of St Peter’sThe Hawks’ Club

SUMMARY:Cambridge Festival of Cycling Talk: Did Queen Victoria Ride a Bike?
DESCRIPTION:A story of the birth of the simplest yet essential and popular machines known to man. \nThis talk is part of the Cambridge Festival of Cycling. It will cover the development of the bicycle in an informal and relaxed way and build a picture of the world into which it had been born\, the Victorian Age and Industrial Revolution and on into the 21st century. \nImagine a world without a wheel. Around 3500BC the potters of Mesopotamia started using a simple turntable. They had created a wheel. Men and women used wheels in pairs\, threes\, fours and fives but not until 1790 was a machine created with two wheels which they could sit astride and move using their legs. The bicycle had arrived. It took another 30 years for it to be fitted with steering! The addition of pedals took another 10 years! \nFree.

SUMMARY:KNIT FOR THE RIVER: Caroline Wright at the Museum of Cambridge
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever knitted or fancied giving it a go? \nWould you like to do something to help support the River Cam and its wildlife? \nThen come join us and Knit For The River! \nInspired by the River Cam and its textile traditions\, artist Caroline Wright is inviting the people of Cambridge to collectively knit a new type of blanket that will be installed on the River Cam riverbank to support the plants and wildlife living there.  \nOver the past 3 months Caroline Wright\, local artist Cathy Dunbar and members of all sorts of different communities across Cambridge have been knitting hundreds of 10cm squares of undyed wool. \nThese squares will be joined together into woollen blankets\, inserted with native River Cam plants and seedlings\, and installed into areas of the river that are naturally eroding. Over several months\, as the wool naturally disintegrates\, the plants and seedlings will take root into the riverbank\, helping to protect\, support and maintain the river and its wildlife. \nOn Sunday 8 September join Caroline and Cathy anytime between 11:30am-4:30pm to find out more about the project\, have a go yourself at knitting the final squares and see the blankets be stitched together. All people of all ages are welcome to drop in anytime and no experience of knitting is needed! \nKNIT FOR THE RIVER is supported by Museum of Cambridge\, the Biodiversity Office at Cambridge City Council and the Cam Conservators and has been created as part of the ‘To The River’ residency\, supported by Cambridge City Council. Produced by Artsadmin. \nSunday 8th September 2019\, 11:30am-4:30pm. \nDrop in\, all ages welcome\, no need to book. \nFREE \nThe Round ChurchPortugal PlaceThrough the Door of St Peter’sThe Hawks’ Club

SUMMARY:August Walking Tour: Hidden Cambridge and the Museum of Cambridge
DESCRIPTION:Journey through the streets of Hidden Cambridge to the Museum of Cambridge \nA walking tour for local residents who have always meant to explore the side streets and alleyways but never quite had the time\, as well as for visitors to our city who want to discover more of Cambridge beyond King’s Parade. \nJoin us as we explore Hidden Cambridge\, taking in the streets\, alleys\, buildings and history of the people living in the area between St John’s College and Quayside — the centre of trade that made the town a thriving inland port long before the first students arrived — before crossing the river to Castle Hill and the location of the Roman settlement of Duroliponte\, the 2\,000 year-old forerunner of the city we know today. \nThe 90-minute tour will end at the Museum of Cambridge. While it may not resemble a Greek temple\, this small\, independent museum located in a former coaching inn has a big story to share. Suffused with the history of the local people of Cambridge\, it contains an eclectic collection of everyday objects used in day-to-day life\, from vacuum cleaners and washing machines to false teeth and mantraps! \nThe tour will be led by a Cambridge Badged Guide\, who will give their time for free – reflecting their high regard for both the Museum of Cambridge and the local history of our city. \nTickets are available at £10.00 per person\, which includes a day pass to the Museum\, from the Visit Cambridge website. \nChildren under 12 years of age can attend for free when accompanied by an adult. \nThe Round ChurchPortugal PlaceThrough the Door of St Peter’sThe Hawks’ Club

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Pride & Place: An LGBTQ+ Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:  \nWhat is the Museum of Cambridge doing for LGBTQ+ History Month? \nWe’re hosting a special community curated exhibition. \nActivism is a key theme of LGBTQ+ history month in 2019\, a year that marks the fiftieth anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall riots in New York (spearheaded by black and Latina trans activists)\, which energised the movement for LGBTQ+ rights and inspired the first Pride March – Cambridge aims to hold its first Pride March in 2019. One of the basic notions of activism is that greater visibility leads to change. \nPride & Place: An LGBTQ+ Exhibition highlights activists in many guises\, both gay and straight\, that shaped the history of the struggle for LGBTQ+ rights – from the overtly political\, to the intellectuals and authors whose lives and work suggested a path to a more inclusive world\, to what we could call accidental activists created in flashpoints of opposition\, as well as grassroots groups the LGBTQ+ community here\, in Cambridge\, today. \nThe exhibition also highlights episodes in the wider LGBTQ+ social history of the city and explores the nature of the community\, through its community spaces\, individual experiences and some of the support networks that presently exist. \nWe aim to start a conversation so come along and share your thoughts with us – you’ll have a bit more time now as we’ve extended the exhibition to Sunday 7 April. \n

SUMMARY:Talk: Growing Up and Getting On in the 1960s
DESCRIPTION:Three stories of education and everyday life \nWhat was life like for ordinary people who were born in East Anglia and the East Midlands just after the Second World War? How did the expansion of secondary education\, new work opportunities\, and social change affect their aspirations and identities? \nDr Laura Carter will examine the experience of growing up in the region using three local life stories that have been reconstructed from information derived from the 1946 British Birth Cohort — a longitudinal study that has followed more than 5\,000 postwar babies from cradle to old-age. \nAlong the way she will also explore the impact of the 1944 Education Act and the effect that universal secondary education had on ordinary people living and working in rural communities across the eastern counties as they left school\, went to work\, and had children of their own during the 1960s. \nThis is a free event\, but you must book so that we can manage attendance \nDr Laura CarterDr Laura Carter‘s research focuses on education\, everyday life\, and social change in Britain during the twentieth century. Her PhD was an examination of popular British social history from the 1920s to the 1960s\, with a particular focus on the way that ordinary people learnt about history through books\, in schools\, in museums\, and via broadcast radio. She is currently working on her first book\, which is provisionally entitled Histories of Everyday Life: The Making of Popular Social History in Britain\, 1918-1979. \nLaura works as a postdoctoral researcher on Secondary Education and Social Change in the United Kingdom since 1945\, an Economic and Social Research Council-funded project that explores the ways in which the advent of mass\, compulsory education after 1945 affected individual and class identities\, and intersected with other processes of social change in late-twentieth century Britain. \nShe is a Research Fellow of Murray Edwards College\, University of Cambridge
