The Creative Foundation Competitors

A place for people with something to say, share, celebrate or change. RSA House is the central London home of The Royal Society of Arts, the original home of creativity for the common good and a place where people have been coming together around ideas for more than 250 years. Today, our 13 event spaces host everything from conferences, talks and product launches to awards, dinners, weddings and celebrations. From the Great Room to the Vaults, each has its own character, with contemporary production, thoughtful food and a team that knows how to bring an event together. Our hospitality is delivered in partnership with Company of Cooks, with menus built around seasonal ingredients, generous food and a belief that what’s on the table should be as considered as everything happening around it. Most importantly, holding an event here means becoming part of something bigger. Income generated through RSA House supports the charitable work of The Royal Society of Arts and its mission to enable people, places and the planet to flourish. Bring your people. Bring your ideas. Imagine what we can do.

As the profession’s oldest and largest professional membership organization for design—with 72 chapters and more than 25,000 members—we advance design as a professional craft, strategic advantage, and vital cultural force. From content that defines the global practice to events that connect and catalyze, we work to enhance the value and deepen the impact of design across all disciplines on business, society, and our collective future.

We champion, develop and invest in artistic and cultural experiences that enrich people's lives. We support activities across the arts, museums and libraries – from theatre to digital art, reading to dance, music to literature, and crafts to collections. By 2030 we want England to be a country in which the creativity of each of us is valued and given the chance to flourish and where everyone of us has access to a remarkable range of high quality cultural experiences. Between 2018 and 2022, we will invest £1.45 billion of public money from government and an estimated £860 million from the National Lottery to help deliver this vision.
