Current Events

Whether you are experienced in crochet, a long-time knitter, or trying it out for the first time, join our group on Thursdays from 10:00-12:00. Everyone is welcome, crochet or knitting is not essential. Most materials will be provided. 

Join our member, Genevieve, for a guided tour of The Sleepers, an art exhibition at Murray Edwards College. The Sleepers surveys works by 12 artists to explore why sleeping, dreaming and resting have been depicted by women artists. It also asks us to consider who has access to these vital moments of relief and respite.

Around the World with Women Writers is a participant-led lively and friendly international forum for those who are interested in women writers from around the world.

Join us for a tour of West Hub.  Familiarise yourself with the variety of facilities offered at the Hub and enjoy lunch or visit the cafe after the tour.

Children are welcome!

One of the largest Roman Catholic church in the country build in 1890.  The church’s significant size, landmark features and stunning architectural detail were intended to suit its anticipated role as the centre of Catholic life at Cambridge University.

Join NVS member Yalda as she guides you through preparing the authentic Persian dish Chicken and Eggplant Tahchin. You’ll take part in the cooking process, learn traditional techniques, and then sit down together to enjoy the delicious meal you’ve created.

Simone invites you to join her for a leisurely walk. The walks are during the weekend for about an hour and a half. These will be informal walks,  when pushchairs and children are welcome too: stroll along with new friends and enjoy the time together.

UniCam Babies is a parent led group for NVS members and their young children. A great opportunity to meet other mums and dads and share experiences, discuss child growth and development.  Refer to your weekly newsletter or email us at enquiries@nvs.admin.cam.ac.uk for location information.
