I grew up in Cambridgeshire and, as seems to be the case with places we grow up, it wasn’t until I left for uni that I learned about Kettles Yard! I love how you describe it here, it really took me back to my first visit there too 🥰

This is lovely, Grace, a reminder of what a unique place Kettle's Yard is, and how valuable a refuge from Cambridge's intellectual intensity. I love the fact that the curators have a shifting display of art in Helen Ede's room, so there's always something new to look at there too.

oh you should definitely try to get there! They do brilliant events too - JW Anderson was there towards the end of last year talking about fashion. xx
