10:00am-5:00pm on Sunday 21 September

Keate Family Arts Trust , 7 Trafalgar Rd, CB4 1EU

In 1989 David Keate, Quaker, Cambridge councillor, artist (sculptures and collages from dried giant hogweed) and architect put his collection of mid twentieth century prints, ceramics and other artworks into trust in the form of the Keate Family Arts Trust.

In 2025, reconstituted and re-energised, KFAT is finding its place alongside Kettle’s Yard and the David Parr house as one of Cambridge’s ‘houses’ to which there is more that outwardly meets the eye.

Jessie-Mae Buers and Titus Keate will choose works from the collection on an architectural theme, curating an exhibition in the downstairs of the house following the Quaker instructions to ‘make your home a place of beauty’ and they will be on hand to talk to visitors about the works and the trust.

Expect John Piper prints from his retrospective of churches, maybe Edward Bawden’s Audley End and a model of Barcelona's Sagrada Familia in hogweed.
