Family fun: The world of water

In 2023, Dr Anastasia Badder began researching relations with water in the Cambridge area, with a particular focus on how religious communities use and value water.Building on that work and informed by subsequent collaborations with water friends, The World of Water offers a series of interactive encounters with water.

This interactive drop-in session invites participants to encounter water in all sorts of ways, including:

• exploring how water interacts with its environment,
• imagining the many beings that live in our local waters, and
• thinking about how water travels around Cambridgeshire.

Who is this for

This event is suitable for children ages 6 and up (in company of a parent or guardian).

Families are invited to drop in at any time.

NB Due to staffing constraints, the diversity of activities on offer may vary throughout the day.

This event is part of the 2025 Cambridge Festival, and is arranged in partnership with Cambridge Zero.

Adults may also be interested in The Value of Water, plus Dear city – water and nature in Cambridge & the Rivers of Light film screening on 3 April.
