The Long Gallery - RSA House Blue Plaque Tour - RSA

The Long Gallery

The Long Gallery was created as part of the Burrell Foley Fisher redevelopment in 2018. It incorporates the previous library's reading room into an extended space for reflection and collaboration.

The ‘RSA 1754 - 2018’ three-panel mural is 43 feet in length and was created by Andrew Park and Suzanne Mills, in consultation with the RSA’s in-house Historian, Anton Howes.

Anton is the author of ‘Arts and Minds: How the Royal Society of Arts changed a nation’ - about the history of the RSA from its founding to the present day. You can loan the book out from the RSA Library.

With a light touch, the mural is a witty interpretation of the Society’s history through its activities and people. Created by We Are Cognitive, the team, led by Andrew Park, is also renowned for its RSA Animates series.
