SUMMARY:Talk: The Spinning House
DESCRIPTION:Caroline Biggs grew up in and around Cambridge. She was a former Trustee of The Museum of Cambridge\, where she organised the History Festival to address the massive imbalance between historical knowledge about the ‘town’ as opposed to the ‘gown.’ She has studied Creative Non-Fiction at Cambridge University and has an MA in Creative Non-Fiction from UEA. \nShe will be talking about her new book\, The Spinning House\, which exposes how the University of Cambridge once imprison women suspect of ‘evil.’ Mistakes were made. Violence and legal action from the townspeople followed until finally an Act of Parliament was passed to put an end to the jurisdiction of the university over the women of Cambridge. \nYou can also find out more from her blog: therealcambridge | More than just Colleges … \nBook now: The Spinning House Tickets\, Wed\, Sep 11\, 2024 at 1:00 PM | Eventbrite \n  \nSupporting the Museum of Cambridge \nThe Museum of Cambridge is an independent Charity and is not part of either the Cambridge Council or the University of Cambridge.

SUMMARY:Talk: The Opportunities of Twinning: Cambridge and Szeged
DESCRIPTION:Hear about the rich culture of Hungary and Szeged\, Cambridge’s twin city. As a companion event to the temporary community exhibition “Our Hungarian Twin City Szeged & its Cultural Riches” curated by the Cambridge Szeged Society\, this talk will delve into the sights of Szeged and discuss the strong cultural exchange through twinning cities. Cambridge’s relationship with Szeged through twinning has produced art exchanges of local artists and choral visits from local talents\, alongside an annual programme of talks\, concerts and film screenings. Hear about all the things the Cambridge Szeged Society develops to foster this friendship\, and the work behind it! \nAbout the speaker: \nJulia Seiber Boyd has been the Chair of Cambridge Szeged Society since 2005. Born in London to Hungarian parents Matyas Seiber (Composer) and Lilla Bauer (Modern Dance lecturer at Goldsmiths College London)\, they both settled in the UK in the 1930s. She was educated at Oxford University and moved to Cambridge when she got married in 1979. She practiced as a lawyer until retirement\, nearly 20 years ago. Julia became interested in developing the many new avenues offered to Cambridge by twinning with Szeged since 1987\, and has worked as Chair to facilitate various exchanges. \nFind out more about the Cambridge Szeged Society: \nCambridge Szeged Society | Cambridge Szeged Society (cambridge-szeged-society.org.uk) \nBook Today! \nGreatOpportunitiesofTwinningTalk.eventbrite.co.uk \nSupporting the Museum of Cambridge \nThe Museum of Cambridge is an independent Charity and is not part of either the Cambridge Council or the University of Cambridge.
