SUMMARY:Work With Joy - Rawnsley\, Ruskin and the Keswick School of Industrial Arts: Scenes from an extraordinary Life
DESCRIPTION:An illustrated talk by Dr. Rosalind Rawnsley (co-author of a new biography of Canon Rawnsley).  Canon Hardwicke Drummond Rawnsley was a co-founder of the National Trust and the talk will look at various aspects of his extraordinary life\, including the influence of John Ruskin\, which bore fruit in the work of the School which Rawnsley and his wife founded in 1884.  It was originally founded to provide skills training to under-employed farm labourers\, in the spirit of John Ruskin’s philosophy and the Arts and Crafts movement.  This enterprise\, while respecting its original principles\, evolved into a flourishing business which survived for a hundred years.  Rosalind is both the great granddaughter of Canon Rawnsley and also the co-author of his newly published biography and will show us how the School\, while respecting its original principles\, evolved into a flourishing business which survived for a hundred years.
