Information About the Arthur Ransome Trust Project: Camp Fires.


This page contains introductory information about Arthur Ransome Trust events, such as public lectures and seminars.

.

Camp Fires is an occasional programme of public lectures and seminars.

Camp Fires include events in partnership with existing organisations in the southern Lake District, including those with Arthur Ransome or Ransome-related interests. We are aiming for a range of events, some offering a general introduction to Arthur Ransome, others focusing in depth on particular aspects of his life and works. Some of our Camp Fires are co-ordinated with our Temporary Moorings exhibitions.

Latest Developments

Please see Current and Future Events for details.

We are very grateful to both The Brantwood Trust and the Lakeland Arts Trust for their enthusiasm and support as our partners and hosts for this lecture series.
