We're inviting people affected by Parkinson’s to take part in a short course led by dance for health artist Filipa Pereira-Stubbs and inspired by objects, artefacts and artworks from the University of Cambridge Museums.
Sessions start with an exploration of museum objects. The stories of these objects inspire the dance session. We end with refreshments and a chance to look again at the objects. The dance is both chair-based and standing, and we invite participants to work at the level that suits them best. Companions are welcome!
Explore the Polar Museum with one of the experts! Staff from the museum will offer a brief history of the Scott Polar Research Institute and take you on a mini tour of some of their favourite objects in the collection.
