SUMMARY:A Great Unrecorded History: Cambridge’s Queer Past
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the next in our series of ‘Cambridge Talks’. \nThe writer E.M. Forster once referred to the history of homosexuality in his time as ‘a great unrecorded history’. This was especially true of Forster’s adopted home of Cambridge\, whose vibrant queer past has often gone unrecorded.  \nDiarmuid Hester’s popular queer audio trail of the city aims to set the record straight (as it were). In this talk\, he discusses his work on the audio trail\, and reveals how LGBTQ+ people have shaped the history of the city and been shaped by it in turn. \nDr Diarmuid Hester is a radical cultural historian\, and an authority on sexually dissident literature\, art\, film\, and performance. He is a regular contributor to BBC Radio 3\, and last year was named a BBC New Generation Thinker. Diarmuid’s new book on sexuality\, culture\, and place will be published by Allen Lane/Penguin in 2023. He teaches at the Faculty of English\, University of Cambridge\, and is a research associate of Emmanuel College\, Cambridge. \nAll proceeds from this event will go towards supporting the Museum of Cambridge.   \nHow to attend this talk: \nThis talk will be held on Zoom. There is no need to download any software- you can access the talk via your usual internet browser from the comfort of your own home. Cup of tea/glass of mulled wine is optional! \nOnce you have purchased your ticket on Eventbrite\, you are officially signed up to the event and you will receive an automatic confirmation email from Eventbrite. \nOn the day of the event\, we will send you a ‘Zoom Invite’ with joining instructions which explains how to attend the talk. \nIf you have any concerns or questions about attending this event\, please email Annie on annie.davis@museumofcambridge.org.uk.

SUMMARY:The Museum Makers with Rachel Morris
DESCRIPTION:In ‘How to Make a Museum Out of your Own Life’\, Rachel Morris will be talking about their book The Museum Makers: \n“My book\, The Museum Makers\, began when I opened up the boxes of old family mementos under my bed and saw inside them the entire history of my bohemian family.  Despite all the years I had been running a museum-making company (called Metaphor) this was the first time that I realised that just as museums are about making meaningful sense out of the confusion of the world\, so – in what we do with our pasts and how we try to make sense of them – we are all museum-makers.  My book is part history of museums\, part memoir of a wayward and bohemian family\, part manual of how to make a museum out of your own life.  Threaded through it are the themes that fascinate me most\, of time and memory and the stories families tell themselves and others. It includes a chapter on the Museum of Cambridge and the story-finding skills of Enid Porter.” \nDon’t miss out on this exclusive event! \nYou can purchase The Museum Makers online here or here. \nAbout Rachel: \nRachel was one of the founding directors of Metaphor\, a company specialising in museum master – planning and exhibition design.  As part of the Metaphor team\, they worked all over the world\, from Chile to the Hebrides\, and from Singapore to the Grand Egyptian  Museum in Cairo.  Rachel specialised in museum interpretation – how to bring objects alive by the stories we tell about them.  Prior to this they had two novels published – The Fringe Orphan and Ella and the Mothers – both of which were very well reviewed.  Rachel has always loved writing.  The only thing that could have enticed them away from it for twenty years was their equal love for museums.  And one of the things Rachel will say in this talk is that storytelling and museum-making have many things in common. \nFollow Rachel on Twitter \nPlease note that this is an exclusive event for the Friends of the Museum of Cambridge.

SUMMARY:Football and Camp Ball in Cambridge and East Anglia Since the 14th Century
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the next in our series of ‘Cambridge Talks’ as we talk all things football with Nigel Fenner \nWhilst most famous for being the birthplace of the modern-day laws of football in the middle of the 19th Century\, Cambridge and East Anglia also boast a long and illustrious association with the game\, including the folk-version\, called Camp Ball across East Anglia – going back to at least the 14th Century. This Zoom presentation follows an imaginary tour though Cambridge starting at St John’s College and finishing on Parker’s Piece\, with reference also to the 200+ Camp Ball sites across East Anglia. \nNigel Fenner won his Football Blue for Cambridge University\, where he trained as a teacher. Related to Frank Fenner\, the local tobacconist who founded Fenner’s Ground\, Nigel’s other ‘Town links’ include living and working locally since 1981\, mostly with disaffected young people. He now runs Cambridge Sports Tours and will be publishing ‘Cambridge Sport: In Fenners’ Hands’ by the end of 2021. \nAll proceeds from this event will go towards supporting the Museum of Cambridge.   \nHow to attend this talk: \nThis talk will be held on Zoom. There is no need to download any software- you can access the talk via your usual internet browser from the comfort of your own home. Cup of tea/glass of wine is optional! \nOnce you have purchased your ticket on Eventbrite\, you are officially signed up to the event and you will receive an automatic confirmation email from Eventbrite. \nOn the day of the event\, we will send you a ‘Zoom Invite’ with joining instructions which explains how to attend the talk. \nIf you have any concerns or questions about attending this event\, please email Annie on annie.davis@museumofcambridge.org.uk.
