Mostyn, for the refurbishment and extension of its gallery

Mostyn
www.mostyn.org 
 

MostynIn May 2010 Mostyn completed a refurbishment and extension described by the Guardian as "one of the most adventurous contemporary art venues in the country."

The new building's blending of old and new in a memorable whole, and provides the context and stimulus for some of the most interesting art to be seen in Wales.

Mostyn is a publicly-funded gallery showing contemporary art from Wales, the UK and overseas in a programme of temporary exhibitions with associated learning activities.

It does have a very small collection of disparate works acquired as purchase prizes in its annual Mostyn Open exhibition but its core purpose is to show temporary exhibitions.

Mostyn is one of the coolest galleries in Wales that is accessible to the visiting tourist/art lover in the UK. I LOve Love Love it. Thanks Mostyn carry on the grand work.

I believe all the team at Mostyn have a very real passion and commitment in all that they do. They work extremely hard to bring a variety of exhibitions to a diverse range of people on what is generally a very tight budget.
Ann Wright, Darwen

The gallery is local to me and brings exciting displays of different artwork to north wales. It helps you to see the wider world through various peoples perspectives. There is also a great cafe here!
