Location:
Coniston Institute and The Ruskin Museum are set in the heart of the beautiful South Lakeland village of Coniston, underneath the inspiring glory of the Yewdale Fells so loved by John Ruskin.
Coniston Institute village hall is the ideal place to gather, learn and get creative. As a mechanics institute spearheaded by John Ruskin in the late 1800s it became the hub of arts and crafts learning for villagers and still remains a centre for community life.
The Ruskin Museum collection includes many art works and sketches by John Ruskin which were donated to Coniston after his death. The outside space looks out on the nearby fells, with the gentle sounds of water flowing directly from the coppermines valley nearby.
