SUMMARY:Reimagining Museum Labels
DESCRIPTION:Our new exhibition Reimagining Museum Labels has launched. The exhibition explores new ways of interpreting museum objects through creative labelling\, including abstract readings of objects and personal interpretations from the Collections Team. These approaches provoke questions about how museum objects are displayed and about how labelling can help museums to tell more complex stories through their collections. \nThe exhibition will be running from June 10th – August 8th\, 2021

SUMMARY:Hidden Cambridge Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Journey through the streets of Hidden Cambridge \nThis Hidden Cambridge tour is for all those who have always meant to explore the side streets and alleyways of this historic city but never quite had the time\, as well as for visitors who want to discover more of Cambridge beyond King’s Parade. \nDiscover the heart of the ancient city\, some of the hidden nooks and crannies you’ve never noticed before around the river crossing and quayside area – traces of the Roman settlement\, the Norman castle\, the Saxon and Viking trading centre and the medieval town. Hear stories of beer\, brothels and boatmen!  \nQualified Blue Badge Guides will share their extensive knowledge of the local area – you won’t find these stories in the guidebooks! \nThe tour is subject to COVID-19 regulations in place at the time\, and the groups will be small and conducted in a safe way. For booking click here.  \nThe tours meet the first Sunday of the month\, at 10.30am outside the Round Church on Bridge Street. Each tour lasts about 90 minutes and the cost of £15 a head includes a free one-time admission to the Museum of Cambridge. All proceeds go towards supporting the Museum. \nThis small\, independent museum\, located in the former White Horse 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! \nThis tour is organised and run by Hidden Cambridge\, for further details contact Hidden.Cambridge@gmail.com.  \n The Museum of Cambridge is hugely thankful to the generous support of the Blue Badge Guides who give up their time to offer these tours. \nOpening times are limited currently\, check the web site for up to date hours. This tour is organised and run by Hidden Cambridge\, for further details contact Hidden.Cambridge@gmail.com Featured photo by Bob Wheatley The Round ChurchPortugal PlaceThrough the Door of St Peter’sThe Hawks’ Club

SUMMARY:Places and Spaces: Exploring Cambridge through Town and Gown
DESCRIPTION:Are you Town or are you Gown? Can you be both\, or neither? Does that affect the way you use spaces in Cambridge? \nA team of 5 Community Curators working with the Museum of Cambridge wanted to find out how the people of Cambridge use spaces in the city\, and if this differed from person to person depending on whether they considered themselves to be Town or Gown. \nWhere do you feel comfortable in the city? What spaces do you use the most\, and how? \nIn July 2021\, Community Curators asked the public to fill in a survey which examined questions of space\, feelings of comfort and discomfort\, and whether people felt spaces in Cambridge were defined by a relationship to the University. There is a historic tension between Town and Gown\, but is this tension real or made-up? Does it influence the way people interact with spaces like parks\, pubs\, and buildings?\n\n‘Places and Spaces: Exploring Cambridge through Town and Gown’\, the museum’s new community-led exhibition\, examines the themes of the use of space in the city\, Town & Gown\, belonging\, and what it means to feel at home for the people of Cambridge.\nThrough this exhibition\, which you can enjoy onsite at the museum and online on our Capturing Cambridge site\, you will see how objects and stories from our past compare to the thoughts and feelings of the people of Cambridge today.\n \nVisiting the exhibition onsite is subject to paid entry to the museum. You will be able to enjoy seeing and learning about the objects in our collection that tell the stories of people and spaces in Cambridge\, a display specially dedicated to our Community Curators and community work in the museum\, and much more. \nTo visit the exhibition online for free\, you only need a device (such as a phone or laptop) with internet connection and a browser installed. At Capturing Cambridge the content of this part of the exhibition is different from that found at the museum: it is an interactive map of the spaces that people who took the survey nominated as their favourites in Cambridge. You can learn about these places as you interact with the map and walk around. This will launch at the same time as the physical display in the museum. \nCome take a look at the spaces we use in Cambridge from 27th August. \nFor enquiries please email enquiries@museumofcambridge.org.uk
