If you're in Cambridge and at a loose end...

...there's a couple of interesting things going on at the moment --

The Big Book event outside Cambridge University Library
 Thursday 19th (tonight!) and Friday 20th May 10am-7pm
Saturday 21st May 10am-5pm

Artist Diana Bell is giving library visitors the opportunity to explore their own imaginations...inside a 2.2 metre high book outside the UL! This book has been travelling the world and has been filled with 57 different languages on the way - an excellent opportunity to literally step inside art and interact with it. Read more here.

Christ's at War: May-October 2011

My superb fellow trainee Charlotte unveiled her inaugural exhibition last night in Christ's Old Library - a delve through the college's past and an examination of the role played by the College and its members during World War I. You'll be surprised by the forward-thinking actions of the College (and how close it came to the front line...), with buckets of original letters, photographs and other documents excellently displayed in the splendour of the Old Library (with a little war-time addition...but I won't spoil the surprise!)

You've got lots of time to enjoy this one, but it is certainly not to be missed.

Happy culture-vulturing!
