Others might consult with a local wise woman and obtain love potions made with dragon’s blood… And\, if such overtures were ignored\, there were also rituals performed in the light of a full moon that could win a person  the attention they desire. \nMany courtship practices have been forgotten or superseded by greetings cards and other modern contrivances\, but you can learn about some of them in our special Valentine’s Day Exhibition\, hosted in our Fens and Fenland Room \nThis exhibition is part of Tracing Traditions\, a project funded by the Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund and delivered by the Museums Association URL:https://www.museumofcambridge.org.uk/event/accept-my-love/ LOCATION:Fens and Fenland Room\, Museum of Cambridge\, 2/3 Castle Street\, Cambridge\, Cambridgeshire\, CB3 0AQ\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,Tracing Traditions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.museumofcambridge.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/acceptmylove-medium.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20180210T130000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20180210T150000 DTSTAMP:20260412T180850 CREATED:20180205T073554Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180212T201806Z UID:1332-1518267600-1518274800@www.museumofcambridge.org.uk SUMMARY:Workshop: Make Your Own Love Token DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday and make your very own love token for the person most dear to your heart \nWe will be making cards\, origami hearts and decorating sweetheart pincushions during the afternoon.

No more striving to get what I haven’t got\, as ”ve already got great riches.

For centuries\, some species were used as hunting birds because of their keen vision\, powerful talons and sharp beaks. Others were regarded as a threat or a menace.

Alice and her family were taken to trial and hanged in Huntingdon. \nWhile the violence arising from the witch mania that consumed the country is well known\, the steps taken by individuals to protect their homes\, their kin and themselves are often overlooked. There was so much that could be done to stop a witch from causing harm and all that was needed was a single\, worn shoe… \nJoin us in the Dining Parlour at our Museum on Monday 19 March to learn more \nThis talk is part of Tracing Traditions\, a project funded by the Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund and delivered by the Museums Association URL:https://www.museumofcambridge.org.uk/event/talk-safeguards-against-witchcraft-local-protective-practices/ LOCATION:Dining Parlour\, The Museum of Cambridge\, 2-3 Castle Street\, Cambridge\, Cambridgeshire\, CB3 0AQ\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Museum,Talk,Tracing Traditions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.museumofcambridge.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/shoesmall.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20180327T113000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20180506T173000 DTSTAMP:20260412T180850 CREATED:20180120T161956Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180409T060409Z UID:1250-1522150200-1525627800@www.museumofcambridge.org.uk SUMMARY:Exhibition: All in a Cave of Snow - the Strange Tale of Elizabeth Woodcock DESCRIPTION:If your curiosity is piqued by the extraordinary\, then we have quite a tale to tell you \nCome visit and discover more about the remarkable Elizabeth Woodcock\, a resident of the village of Impington who survived for nearly eight days in a cave of snow after a fall from her horse on a tempestuous evening in February 1799. \nBased around contemporary accounts\, our exhibition uses objects from our own collection to illustrate Elizabeth’s tremendous fortitude\, as she struggled to survive in her icy cavern with just an almanac\, a snuff box\, a nutcracker\, a red handkerchief and a shoe. We will also explore the obsolete and rather alarming medicinal treatments that she endured after she was found. \nHer amazing survival story spread across the county and then countrywide and many flocked to her with gifts that included bountiful amounts of liquor. Such generous quantities of alcohol – both from well-wishers and from doctors – may well have accelerated her declining health and caused her death just five months later in July. \nPerhaps it might be said that Elizabeth died as a result of kindness… \nVisit our blog and discover the link between Elizabeth\, a common item of clothing and a famous nursery rhyme. \nThis exhibition is part of Tracing Traditions\, a project funded by the Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund and delivered by the Museums Association URL:https://www.museumofcambridge.org.uk/event/all-in-a-cave-of-snow-the-strange-tale-of-elizabeth-woodcock/ LOCATION:Fens and Fenland Room\, Museum of Cambridge\, 2/3 Castle Street\, Cambridge\, Cambridgeshire\, CB3 0AQ\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Museum,Tracing Traditions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.museumofcambridge.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/elizabethwoodcock.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20180330 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20180501 DTSTAMP:20260412T180850 CREATED:20180322T082703Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180411T191020Z UID:1720-1522371600-1525049999@www.museumofcambridge.org.uk SUMMARY:Exhibition: Mary Charlotte Greene - Streets\, Inns\, Yards and Courts of Cambridge\, 1894 - 1950 DESCRIPTION:  We are pleased to announce that we are extending the exhibition for a further fortnight   \n“Cambridge had called me to it and I love the place” \nBorn in 1860 in Takeley\, Essex\, Mary Charlotte Greene had a passion for painting from a young age. She studied at the Colarossi Academy in Paris\, while staying with her sister Helen\, before training at the Royal Academy in London. \nHer initial dismay at a family decision to live in Harston\, Cambridgeshire\, grew into a love of the village\, the surrounding countryside and the nearby town of Cambridge. Working from a studio in a side road off St Andrew’s Street\, she became a prominent member of the Cambridge Drawing Society and served as its President from 1926-29. \nHer early work captures many of the streetscapes\, buildings\, inns\, yards\, and courts of Cambridge that were demolished during the growth and modernisation of the town in the early part of the last century. \nRead more about Mary Charlotte Greene and how she influenced the artist and wood engraver Gwen Raverat on our blog pages for April. \nJoin us in the Dining Parlour at our Museum from 30 March to view drawings\, watercolours\, oil paintings and prints from our Mary Charlotte Greene Collection and explore her unique record of the history and development of our city.\n \nThis exhibition is part of Capturing Cambridge\, a project funded by Cambridge City Council.

Many incredible and often farfetched tales were told about him for hundreds of years after his death.

Even fewer know of the influential role played by the town as well as the gown. \nNigel Fenner will explore the mid-nineteenth century history of sport in the city\, when the rules of modern-day football were first codified\, the Cambridgeshire county cricket team was one of the strongest in the country and local tobacconist and right-arm fast bowler Francis Phillips Fenner was establishing the cricket ground that still carries his name. \nDescended from Francis Phillips Fenner\, Nigel played fly-half to Gareth Edwards in an Old Boys Rugby Match at his school. While studying at the University of Cambridge he represented Downing College at rugby\, cricket\, tennis\, squash and rowing\, for which he won his oar at the May Bumps. He also played football for the University and secured his ‘Blue’ in a game against the University of Oxford at Wembley Stadium. Nigel played for Arsenal Youth and\, for four years\, was the pre-season fitness trainer to Ian Botham and the Somerset County Cricket Club squad. \nHe runs Cambridge Sports Tours. \n\n \nThis talk is part of Tracing Traditions\, a project funded by the Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund and delivered by the Museums Association URL:https://www.museumofcambridge.org.uk/event/from-football-to-cricket-the-development-of-sport-in-cambridge/ LOCATION:Enid Porter Room\, Museum of Cambridge\, 2-3 Castle Street\, Cambridge\, Cambridgeshire\, CB3 0AQ\, United Kingdom ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.museumofcambridge.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/footballtocricket.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20180505T113000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20180601T180000 DTSTAMP:20260412T180850 CREATED:20180504T212042Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180528T102317Z UID:2070-1525519800-1527876000@www.museumofcambridge.org.uk SUMMARY:Exhibition: A Loyal Toast DESCRIPTION:From a simple ceremony in a village church to the pomp and circumstance of royal nuptials\, weddings are rarely sedate affairs \nDid you know that the town of Cambridge celebrated the marriage of Prince George\, Duke of York\, and Mary of Tek on 6 July 1893 with a day long programme of games\, concerts\, fireworks and a tea for a thousand of the aged poor on Parker’s Piece? \nThere is no doubt that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s nuptials on Saturday 19 May will inspire much of the same joy and happiness\, and we are getting involved.
