Learning Gallery

The Whipple Museum of the History of Science is reimagining our Learning Gallery!

We seek a creative practitioner with experience in community-focused installations to bring the “wow” factor to the Gallery, with an exciting and eye- catching new artwork to hang in the ceiling.

We’ve been consulting our young audiences about what they’d like to see in the Gallery: we’d like you to take inspiration from them, and from our collections, to create a work that inspires and invites reflection.

How you do it is up to you.

Fee: £2000 + £500 budget

Project development & delivery: March & early April 2025

Deadline for expressions of interest: Sunday 26 January 2025

How to apply: Email our curator, Hannah Price (hp280@cam.ac.uk) with

  • A one-page CV or resume
  • Three examples of your practice via online portfolio, annotated photographs or links
  • A 300-word proposal outlining how you might approach the project.
