The Museum of Cambridge A SMALL MUSEUM WITH A BIG STORY

We hope that you will join us for the first OUSC event of 2025, a talk by OUSC member Roger Lilley (Christ Church, Theology) on The Museum of Cambridge. Roger is a trustee of the museum which aims to tell ‘extraordinary stories of ordinary people’ in our area. He will tell us about its interesting past and the hopes for its future, and also about the intriguing on-line project Capturing Cambridge which presents our community’s history. The Museum of Cambridge – A small museum, with a big story to share

Please reply to this email by 22nd March to let us know you are coming so we can alert Wolfson to the numbers expected.
