Activity: Memory Café – Fairs and Festivals

Enid Porter Room, Museum of Cambridge 2-3 Castle Street, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom

From the excitement of the rides to the delicious food and treats on sale. From the music playing to the things available to buy. Did you or your family work at a fair? Did you look forward to them for weeks beforehand?

Fun fairs, markets and festivals, we want to hear your stories. Join us on Friday 31 August and share your recollections at our second August Memory Café.

Exhibition: At Last! Votes for Women

Fresh from the Women's Library of the London School of Economics and Political Science, we are proud to showcase banners, sashes, badges and documents that tell the story of the fight for equal voting rights for women.

The exhibition also includes the diaries of imprisoned campaigners and contemporary leaflets detailing protest tactics such as a plan to 'rush' the House of Commons.
