gallery
Art display space
A gallery is a room or building for displaying art: The museum's new gallery opens next month.
The word extends to any long, narrow space—a corridor, a covered walkway, or a balcony in a theater where cheaper seats are located.
To play to the gallery is to seek approval from the least sophisticated audience.
A gallery can also be a collection: a rogues' gallery, a gallery of photographs.
In mining, a gallery is a horizontal underground passage.
