The Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology in Cambridge , is closing from 8 November for refurbishment. The Museum is starting a £1.8 million redevelopment and modernisation with improved access and updated displays.
Cambridge University’s Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology offers a feast of images and ideas. Come and see world-class collections of Oceanic, Asian, African and native American art – canoes, sculptures, masks, and textiles – and major archaeological discoveries, ranging from the earliest stone tools, discovered by Louis Leakey in Olduvai Gorge, to British finds from Roman and medieval periods. Recent exhibitions include Arctic Passages, an exploration of the Wordie Arctic Expeditions of 1934 and 1937, and The Expiation of Guilt, by provocative Australian artist Gordon Bennett.
