From this Saturday, Cambridge families can embark on a free quest through the city's streets to discover its hidden secrets. To mark The Big Draw 2010 - an annual celebration of art and drawing - the Fitzwilliam and Cambridge Central Library have worked with the Cambridge School of Art at Anglia Ruskin University to offer an exciting Drawing Adventure Trail through Cambridge's city centre. Designed especially for children, this trail leads families through the streets to discover and draw some of the wonderful beasts and amazing characters who are carved onto buildings and lurking behind college gates.

The half-term trail, called Lord Fitzwilliam and the Cambridge Quest, will be available to pick up free of charge from both the Fitzwilliam Museum and Cambridge Central Library from Saturday 23 October. Visitors to the Museum and the Library on this particular day can also enjoy special free drawing and craft activities to celebrate the launch of the trail, as well as an additional storytelling event at the Library.
