Anti Racist Cumbria Summit
2 Nov | 9.00am – 4.45pm @ Theatre By The Lake, Keswick
The Anti Racist Summit is the seminal social justice event in the county. Back for its third year in a new bigger venue – the stunning Theatre By The Lake by the shores of Derwentwater in Keswick, the Anti Racist Summit 2023 will be brighter, bolder and more experiential than ever before.
It’s an inspiring space for connections, taking action, healing, continuing your education and moving the conversation and anti-racism forward. Here’s a taste of what you can expect from 2023’s knockout line-up.

2023 overview
Our 2023 keynote speaker and Q&A is from British-Nigerian historian, author, presenter and BAFTA winning film-maker David Olusoga. Expert led workshops from Runnymede Trust, brap and Danny F***ing Price blend with panel discussions, wellbeing practices, music and conversation to tackle the topics that matter. To allow more flexibility ARC are bringing in full and half day tickets; full day tickets include workshops (see below), a very scrummy lunch and a bundle of interactive activities and sessions. For lunch this year ARC welcomes a kitchen takeover at the Lakeside Cafe from Walaa’s Syrian Kitchen who will be bringing delicious authentic Syrian food to your plates!
Workshop 1: Questioning Societal Norms with ARC and brap
Examine the status quo and how you can affect meaningful change from within
Workshop 2: Confronting Injustice: Racism and the Environmental Emergency with Runnymede Trust
Address how global racial disparity underpins the environmental emergency and what you can do about it where you are.
Workshop 3: Disrupting the Dialogue with Danny F***ing Price
Turn your outrage into art and get creative with intersectional activist and content creator Danny.
