    "A mathematician, like a painter or a poet, is a maker of patterns", said the famous Cambridge mathematician G.H Hardy.

    Join staff and students from the Mathematics Faculty to find out what patterns you can discover, explore your creative thinking and reasoning and develop your problem-solving skills with hands-on mathematical activities and games for all ages from 8 to adult. Join us to explore, experiment, discover, question and enjoy!

    This event is part of the 2023 Cambridge Festival. No booking required - drop in throughout the afternoon.
