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.
The 2009 Fitzwilliam Sculpture Promenade was a showcase for contemporary and modern sculpture on the lawns of the Fitzwilliam Museum – an annual exhibition that may be enjoyed freely by all. The installation was selected and organised by the Museum’s director, Timothy Potts, and Cambridge sculptor Helaine Blumenfeld, Vice-President of the Royal British Society of Sculptors (RBS). The nine works by eight sculptors were selected from submissions by members of the RBS, and were on display until January 2010. The project was generously sponsored by the Unex Group, Cambridge.
