About this Event

Our Bridging Binaries LGBTQ+ Tours explore the spectrum of identities that exist across time, place and culture in the University of Cambridge Museums.

Since 2018, the Bridging Binaries team of volunteer guides have been sharing their personal selection of fascinating stories about gender and sexual identity through a range of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer-related objects from across our Museums.

How do labels and categories affect the stories we choose to tell, or how we connect with each other? How do they affect our interaction with the natural world, and how we imagine the future?

Each tour is unique as specially trained volunteer tour guides put their own personal spin on their tour.


Please note: if you would like to arrange a group tour, please contact us directly at [email protected] rather than booking through Eventbrite.

Group tours are free for schools and community groups. Commercial organisations (including language schools) are charged £50 per booking.
