What's on

This year’s Curator’s exhibition at Wisbech and Fenland Museum from October 2 to November 2 is all set to be every bit as quirky as its title.

Curator Robert Bell has been fascinated by collectors and their collections of curiosities since he first fell in love with the town’s Museum before he came to work there – because like many provincial museums in Victorian times, it was, and unusually still is, an assembly of collections.

Robert is finding a different curiosity from each of the 189 years the Museum has run since its opening to display and show how what fascinates people has changed over time – and also how public attitudes to items have changed.
