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

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! \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.  \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. \nFeatured photo by Bob Wheatley The Round ChurchPortugal PlaceThrough the Door of St Peter’sThe Hawks’ Club

SUMMARY:PERIPHERY: Ian Rawlinson speaks with The Museum of Cambridge
DESCRIPTION:Event details: \nAs an artist Ian Rawlinson’s work has taken him around the UK\, the world and back to his hometown of Cambridge. His recent artwork and filmmaking have seen him re-engage with his past\, shedding new light on transitional places that remained hidden in his psyche for many years. He will talk about the process of making this work and why unearthing places and memories from his childhood have formed a powerful confluence with his present day experiences of working in Cambridge\, drawing him back to the city he left as a teenager. \nAbout Ian: \nBorn in Cambridge\, Ian Rawlinson grew up in the city during the 1960s and 1970s. He studied art at Cambridge College of Art & Technology (now Anglia Ruskin University) and left Cambridge in 1982 to further his studies at Winchester School of Art and the Royal College of Art. Since 1985 he has lived and worked in London. He has also travelled and worked in Europe\, the USA and Mexico. To date his work has been shown in many group and solo exhibitions\, both in the UK and internationally and is held in public and private collections. \nIn 2011 a revelatory moment caused Rawlinson to reconsider his relationship with the past and he decided to make a short film using images of his childhood home in Arbury and King’s Hedges to explore ideas of place and memory. Whilst researching this project he came across some evocative images of the old Kite (pre-Grafton Centre) and decided to make a film and series of work about the loss of this area. This work formed the exhibition ‘Vessel’\, shown at Williams Art in Cambridge in 2014. ‘Trace‘\, a second exhibition and film about his past connections with North Barnwell took place at the Leper Chapel in 2015. There followed a series of solo exhibitions at the newly opened Edge Café on Mill Road. ‘No Man’s Land‘\, inspired by memories of Mill Road took place in 2017. ‘Frontier‘ included his work about Arbury and King’s Hedges along with his third film\, in 2018. Further exhibitions ‘Liminal‘ and ‘Absence‘ took place in 2019 and 2020 respectively. His most recent exhibition\, ‘Marginal‘\, took place in September 2021 and featured Rawlinson’s work along with text by writer Grahame Davies. \nIan’s work: \nVisit Ian’s website for more about his work. \nAbout the event: \nThis talk is part of the Museum’s ‘Cambridge Talks’ series. All proceeds from this event will go towards supporting the Museum of Cambridge.   \nHow to book: \nTickets are by donation. To book onto this event please visit our Eventbrite page and follow the prompts. \n  \nBOOK NOW
