RIBA Trust: Adventures in Architecture™

The RIBA Trust has published its first brochure to coincide with the opening of Architecture Week and the RIBA Awards Dinner on Friday, 17 June.

It is available free of charge at the RIBA, Victoria and Albert Museum and other cultural venues and will be widely circulated to government departments, schools of architecture and others across the country. The RIBA Trust manages the cultural assets of the Royal Institute of British Architects, which was founded in 1834 ‘for the advancement of architecture’.

It encompasses the Library and Collections, Awards and Exhibitions and Events. The Trust’s British Architectural Library is world-class, with a collection of over four million items from periodicals to models, photographs, manuscripts and diaries.

Original drawings by great architects such as Andrea Palladio and Frank Lloyd Wright are available for viewing free of charge at the RIBA’s state-of-the-art Study Rooms at the V&A. Through the V&A + RIBA Architecture Partnership the RIBA Trust brings architecture to the public at the Victoria and Albert Museum.

The Architecture Gallery, which opened in November 2004, attracted more than 100,000 visitors in its first three months.
