CARMARTHEN GUIDE Independent ideas for your day out

Contemporary art in the town centre / CARMARTHEN

Oriel Myrddin

Make time for changing contemporary art, craft and design at Oriel Myrddin. The gallery offers a different view of Carmarthen from its castle and civic history, and can fit comfortably before a meal or between other central stops. Look at the current exhibition first so the visit matches your interests rather than assuming a permanent local-history display.
