We are celebrating the rich and varied creative talents on Anglesey by holding the Arts Weeks in two parts; Open Studios and Galleries over the Easter two weeks and then, in October, the Performing Arts.
During the Open Studios and Galleries weeks visual artists and open their studios to visitors. You may find anything from cards and prints to buy, to exhibitions and installations of contemporary art to see in studios, chapels, barns, sheds, galleries and artists’ homes; a chance to meet and talk with the artist, often over a cup of tea, and gain a unique glimpse of the artistic process.
An exhibition of at least one piece of work from each participant of the seventh Anglesey Arts Weeks: Open Studios. Artists will be
working in the Centre; a large-scale map of Anglesey will show the
location of the studios.
Opens 6 pm; talk 6.30 pm

Veronica and Mike Knowles return to Ucheldre with a fresh body of work.
Veronica's subjects are family, garden and animals and, until recently, from choice she has been a rare exhibitor.
Mike's paintings are concerned almost entirely with the human figure and landscape, and he has
exhibited widely.

A new art gallery, Oriel Daniel, is now open in Llangefni.
Rhys G Morris is the young entrepreneur running Oriel Daniel which is located at Canolfan Cefni in the town centre of Llangefni. The Gallery was officially opened recently by Councillor Peter Rogers who was very supportive of Rhys during his time at University. Councillor Rogers has known the Morris family, including Rhys’ grandfather, for over 40 years. He said that it was a pleasure to open the Gallery as the building itself had been empty for some time. He was especially pleased to see a young man running the premises, which was in his opinion ‘a prime site on the High Street’, and he was pleased of his success after having worked so hard. He also noted that Rhys will also be offering a professional framing service and this he said, ‘will be his bread and butter’. He continued, ‘this is just the kind of business that is needed here in Llangefni’. He thanked all the friends and supporters for attending and the Gallery was officially opened with best wishes for good luck by all.
