About this space

A contemporary hall with a glass apex ceiling and wooden floorboards, this is a bright and energising space that provides contrast to some of the RSE’s classic architecture.

Leading directly into the Wolfson Lecture Theatre, and connecting to the Lower Gallery, the Upper Gallery can be used alone for workshops, talks and exhibitions or alongside adjoining spaces for arrival coffees, breakout sessions, or receptions.
