The gallery on its way to becoming a wonderful industrial exhibition space -- and the double doors in the south wall lead to Artword Theatre. |

The main gallery is 73 feet

windows on part of the north wall (see photo

The north gallery, at right
angles to the main gallery, leads to washrooms and emergency
exit. |
