Maggie Fowler

Visited Kettle’s Yard with a colleague in 1970/71 as a student midwife. She remembers an unusual and warm welcome by Jim Ede. Jim influenced her appreciation of art. She visited a number of times whilst in Cambridge.

In 2004, whilst nursing on the oncology wards at Addenbrookes Hospital, she renewed her connection with Kettle’s Yard, supporting a joint project with the Fitzwilliam Museum to take images of art work to patients’ bedsides. At the time of interview she was continuing to develop this project as part of her role at Wallace Cancer Care.
