Hall for exhibiting art (5)

I believe the answer is:

salon

(Other definitions for salon that I've seen before include "(Room for) gathering of distinguished people" , "Elegant room - for hairdresser?" , "Beautician's establishment" , "Establishment of, say, beauty specialist" , "Establishment of beauty specialist or hairdresser" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
