In 2015, Literature Wales received a generous capital grant from Arts Council Wales to renovate Tŷ Newydd. As part of the work, new art installations were commissioned.

The first commission, a coffee table for the Glyn Jones Library, has been installed. Local artist Miriam Jones writes about the process of creating the table in a previous blog.

Two new art installations have also been added to the collection. Both were made by artist Angharad Pearce Jones and have been aptly names Kate Roberts’ Bench and R S Thomas’ Chair. You can learn more about her work on her website.

We’re very grateful for the support from Arts Council Wales and from both artists.
