A bold new exhibition by Welsh artists Beth Leahy and Eleanor Whiteman, commissioned to respond to the Crawshay Family portraits — uncovering the hidden stories of women erased from Merthyr's 19th-century history.
Merthyr Tydfil is home to some of the most significant cultural collections in Wales. Cyfarthfa Castle Museum and Art Gallery — housed in a stunning Grade I listed Gothic mansion — holds a remarkable collection of industrial heritage, fine art, social history and contemporary Welsh art. The museum is open to visitors from April to September and hosts a rolling programme of temporary exhibitions throughout the year.
The Oriel Bothy Gallery, nestled within the grounds of Cyfarthfa Park, provides an intimate space for local and Welsh artists to exhibit new work. Past exhibitions have been commissioned through the Arts Council of Wales and have explored themes of Welsh identity, social history and contemporary creativity.
From major funded exhibitions at Cyfarthfa to grassroots gallery events and pop-up shows, there's always something to see in Merthyr. Browse all upcoming exhibitions above — and if you're hosting a show or gallery event locally, submit it for free listing.
