In 1888 The National Association for the Advancement of Arts and its Application to Industry was founded for the purpose of holding an Annual Congress for the reading of papers on the application of Art to Industry. In 1906 it was decided to devote existing funds to an open Studentship for the promotion and encouragement of art. In 1928 the Trustees approached the Society with a view to the Trusteeship being taken over by the Society. Subsequently an Art Congress Studentship of the value of £50 was offered in connection with the Industrial Designs Competition of 1928.\n\nThree Trust Deeds or Deeds of Appointment. The first, dated 1 June 1912, concerns the appointment of a new Trustee; the second, dated 2 August 1906 concerns the foundation of 'The Art Congress Studentship'; and the last, dated 1 May 1928, concerns the appointment of the RSA as Trustees.
