“Now on exhibit”

Hi Strands fans. I breezed through this one, though admittedly the last one gave me a little pause for thought, as it's a word I may literally have never said out loud.
Still, the theme was easy to grasp. "Now on exhibit" made me immediately think about museums and galleries, and sure enough I was able to trace the word "museum" backwards, adding "art" for the spangram of ARTMUSEUM.
From there, the answers flowed thick and fast, until the final one. SCULPTURE came first, followed by PAINTING to complete the bottom half of the board.
I saw COLLAGE in the top half, immediately above the end of the spangram, and above that was MURAL.
The last one, as signposted in the intro, did give me a few problems. I knew there was only one answer left, but I found it tricky to unpick the anagram the remaining letters left: LIAPTHORHG.
Eventually, I figured it out, however: LITHOGRAPH.
