Arts & Culture THE MUST-SEE EVENTS AROUND CAMBRIDGE THIS MONTH

THE PSYCHEDELIC FURS 5 OCT, 7PM, £31 ADV CAMBRIDGE JUNCTION A long-awaited taste of the late-1970s post-punk rock scene, coming up at Cambridge Junction for one night only.

Organised by the University of Cambridge Museums (UCM), Summer with the Museums is a month-long programme of online and in-person family events. Expect creative crafts and science activities – from making dinosaur feet and going on scavenger hunts to discovering more about amazing women scientists and the art of mosaics. There’s also exciting trails, interactive educational sessions and plenty more to make for a fantastic family day out. “After an entirely online programme last year, we are delighted to now offer families the best of both worlds and welcome visitors back into our museums,” says Susan Miller, Summer with the Museums coordinator. “We continue to be a major part of the museums’ annual family programme. Not only does it let us showcase the diverse range of family-friendly events on offer over the summer holiday period, it also provides support to the incredible work achieved by museums and collections across the region. After the challenges everyone has encountered over the past year, we really hope this summer offers opportunity for fun and re-engagement with our collections.” This year’s programme will also feature a range of activities for children with special educational needs. Based on the collection at Wisbech and Fenland Museum, these will be available online and accompanied by additional resources, which will be sent out to families for free.
