The Royal Manchester Institution (RMI) was an English learned society founded on 1 October 1823 at a public meeting held in the Exchange Room by Manchester merchants, local artists and others keen to dispel the image of Manchester as a city lacking in culture and taste. In the basement a laboratory was installed by Lyon Playfair who worked there briefly as Professor of Chemistry after he left Thomson's of Clitheroe. He was succeeded by Frederick Crace Calvert who made phenol which was used by Joseph Lister as an antiseptic.

  • La Royal Manchester Institution (RMI) (castellanizado como: Real Sociedad de Mánchester) fue una sociedad científica inglesa fundada el 1 de octubre de 1823 en una reunión pública celebrada en la Sala de Intercambio por los comerciantes de Mánchester, artistas locales y otros interesados para disipar la imagen de Mánchester como una ciudad carente de cultura y sabor. La RMI se alojó en un edificio de Mosley Street diseñado por Charles Barry en 1824. La construcción del edificio comenzó en 1825 y terminó en 1835 por un coste de 30.000 libras esterlinas. Siendo un edificio clasificado de primer grado, es el único edificio público en estilo neoclásico.​ La Institución realizó exposiciones de arte, recogió obras de arte y promovió las artes en general, desde la década de 1820 hasta 1882, cuando el edificio y sus colecciones fueron transferidas por la Ley del Parlamento a Manchester Corporation, convirtiéndose en Manchester Art Gallery. En el sótano un laboratorio fue instalado por que trabajaba allí brevemente como profesor de química después de que dejara la Thomson's Clitheroe.​ Fue sucedido por que hizo fenol que fue utilizado por Joseph Lister como antiséptico.​ La primera escuela de diseño en Mánchester fue acomodada en el edificio de 1838. En la década de 1880 se trasladó a los locales en Cavendish Street, Chorlton en Medlock, que todavía ocupa en el marco de la Universidad Metropolitana de Mánchester. (es)

L'institution organise régulièrement des expositions d'art, collectionne des œuvres d'art et fait la promotion des arts en général à partir des années 1820 jusqu'en 1882, date à laquelle l'édifice et ses collections sont transférés en vertu d'une loi du Parlement à Manchester Corporation, devenant ainsi la Manchester Art Gallery.

  • The Royal Manchester Institution (RMI) was an English learned society founded on 1 October 1823 at a public meeting held in the Exchange Room by Manchester merchants, local artists and others keen to dispel the image of Manchester as a city lacking in culture and taste. The Institution was housed in a building in Mosley Street designed by Charles Barry in 1824. Construction of the building began in 1825, and was completed in 1835, at a cost of £30,000. A Grade I listed building, it is his only public building in the Greek neo-classical style. The Institution held regular art exhibitions, collected works of fine art and promoted the arts generally from the 1820s until 1882, when the building and its collections were transferred under Act of Parliament to Manchester Corporation, becoming Manchester Art Gallery. In the basement a laboratory was installed by Lyon Playfair who worked there briefly as Professor of Chemistry after he left Thomson's of Clitheroe. He was succeeded by Frederick Crace Calvert who made phenol which was used by Joseph Lister as an antiseptic. The first school of design in Manchester was accommodated in the building from 1838. The school was renamed the school of art in 1853 which became a sectional department of the Royal Manchester Institution. In 1892 it became the Municipal School of Art. In the 1880s it moved to premises in Cavendish Street, Chorlton on Medlock, which it still occupies as part of the Manchester Metropolitan University. The latter building was designed by G. T. Redmayne (1880-81) and is now known as the Grosvenor Building of the Metropolitan University. The Manchester School of Art undertook teaching at various levels and became a central institution serving a wide area around Manchester. Two branches of activity were undertaken, the training of creative artists, and the training of trade craftsmen. The resources of the school included well equipped studios and workrooms, a museum of applied art and a library. The school conferred the diploma of associateship on successful students, and also prepared students for diplomas conferred by other bodies including the Board of Education's scheme for training art teachers.
