THE
LIFE GALLERY
Lister Hospital, Stevenage
WHAT IS THE LIFE GALLERY
The LIFE Gallery is beautiful space inside the Lister Hospital created for our community to display and sell their art. A spacious place away from the wards, where our patients, staff and visitors can spend time in peaceful contemplation of the art on display. We also offer promotion of your work through our extensive internal and external communication networks. If you would like to rent space, please click on price list above and email us via link below.
