The Museum of Classical Archaeology is home to more than 600 plaster casts of Greek and Roman sculpture. But our plaster casts are a funny type of object: betwixt and between, with one foot in the ancient world and the other in more recent history.

Join us on this tour to look beyond the replica and find out some of the stories behind our statues, and why we even have a collection of casts here in Cambridge.

This tour will meet at the front desk in the Cast Gallery.
