Creative Walk: Murray Edwards College Sculpture Gardens
Our Creative Walks invite you to slow down, explore your surroundings and discover fresh creative inspiration. Each month, we'll explore a different route and a new corner of Cambridge, using what we notice along the way to spark reflection, curiosity and new ideas. We'll finish each walk at a nearby café, with time to reflect, create, chat and share what has inspired us.
