About the John Ruskin Prize

The John Ruskin Prize is the fastest growing multi-disciplinary art prize in the UK. With the values of the radical polymath John Ruskin at it's core, the Prize has a growing reputation for supporting and promoting artists, designers and makers whose work defies easy categorisation.
