The Arthur Ransome Society
The Arthur Ransome Society, also known by its acronym Tars, and whose members refer to themselves as ''Tars'', is a society whose goals are to "celebrate the life, promote the works, and diffuse the ideas of Arthur Ransome". It is based at the Abbot Hall Art Gallery in Kendal, England.
==History==
In 1984 Christina Hardyment had written an account of her own investigations into the real-life places and real-life people in Arthur Ransome's stories. As a direct result of this book, ''Arthur Ransome and Captain Flint's Trunk'', people interested in forming a society dedicated to Arthur Ransome had been leaving their contact details at Abbot Hall, where, following his death in 1967, his widow Evgenia had donated various articles, including his writing desk. In 1989 Christina followed up on these contact details by sending an appeal for funds to restore the dilapidated ''Mavis'', the supposed prototype for Arthur Ransome's ''Amazon'', The response to this appeal was overwhelming and in June 1990 The Arthur Ransome Society was formed.
A particularly large sum came from the Arthur Ransome Club (ARC) of Japan. The ceremony was attended by Christina Hardyment, Tamami Nakayama of ARC and Brigit Sanders (née Altounyan), a prototype of the character Bridget Walker. Brigit Sanders subsequently became President of TARS.
In 1997 the society was incorporated as a Company Limited by Guarantee.
