β: This is a Beta release of the Fitzwilliam Museum's potential new website.
We want to co-design
our Virtual Museum presence with you.
You can return to our current site at any time.
Following the Government announcement yesterday, museums and galleries in Cambridge will be closed to the public as part of a period of national/local restrictions. So, with great sadness, we will not be able to reopen as planned on 2 January 2021.
Investigate shape, form, texture and materials as we discover sculpture in the Museum from the ancient to modern.
Contact us on 01223 332904 or email to book, or to discuss your needs.
The museum-led session is scheduled for two hours and is delivered in the first sixty minutes of your booked slot. We recommend that schools use their second hour for follow-up time from the taught session.
You can also book a studio workshop related to this theme.
'Seeing things ''in real life'' makes such a difference, especially something like sculpture, which is not the same if you just look at a photo.' - KS1 teacher
