Background on the RSA
The Royal Society of Arts was founded in 1754 by William Shipley as the Society for the Encouragements of Arts, Manufacture and Commerce. It was granted a Royal Charter in 1847, and the right to use the term Royal in its name, by King Edward VII in 1908. The shorter version, The Royal Society of Arts and the related RSA acronym, are used more frequently than the full name. The RSA has been based in RSA House close to the Strand in London since 1774.
