About us
Who we are
Bishopsgate Institute is a home for ideas and debate, learning, and enquiry. We are a small, fiercely independent charity with our own extraordinary premises at the crossroads of the City, Spitalfields and the East End, where culture, heritage, and learning meet. Bishopsgate Institute was "erected for the benefit of the public" in 1894, with the motto "I never stop learning". Our purpose has not changed.
