18.00-21.00
Delve deeper into the natural world. Grab a drink and join us amongst the specimen jars and skeletons. Use strategy, tactics and a little healthy competition to beat your opponents in animal-inspired board games.

Join us to hear the story of Wicken Fen, including the tale of trying to bring back a lost frog species to Cambridgeshire. Less than 1% of original fen survives in East Anglia, of which Wicken Fen is a fragment. However, the Wicken Fen Vision is an ambitious plan to create a diverse landscape for wildlife and people stretching the edge of Cambridge, and maybe also a home for the lost Pool Frog.
Please arrive at 17.45. Talk: 18.00 - 18.45. Galleries will be open until 19.30 to explore after the talk.
Discover the work of artist Jonathan Kingdon after hours. Be inspired by animal patterns and communication, and find out more about the wildlife of Africa.
