Storiel have recently commissioned local artist Llyr Erddyn Davies to design a sculpture which highlights the rich history of North Wales, as well as the offering of Storiel Museum. We would really like to know what you think, especially if you are a resident of Bangor or the surrounding area! If you have 5 minutes , please could you watch the video and fill out the short questionnaire. Thank you.
Discover the story of the Welsh Women’s Peace Petition 1923-24, and the pivotal role of Welsh women in campaigning for peace. The stories of these remarkable women are as inspiring and relevant today as a hundred years ago.
Meninir Mathias will be leading an oil painting masterclass with a focus on portraiture here at Storiel Bangor to mark the end of the Peace exhibition, in which some of Meninir's paintings are on display. The workshop is suitable for adults, and some painting experience is recommended. In this workshop, we'll create one alla prima portrait. The workshop will help to build confidence with your skill set with one-to-one critiques. Meinir will share her knowledge and experience, which you can apply to your painting. You'll explore the potential of colour, composition and paint application and gain an understanding of how to build a successful portrait.
This exhibition brings together works by Shani Rhys James and Stephen West. As well as works on loan from national institutions, both have produced new work in response to Storiel’s building and collections.
