The eagerly awaited opening of Oriel Kyffin Williams will take place in the Summer of 2008.
Oriel Kyffin Willaims will be a permanent and fitting tribute to one of Wales’ most celebrated and respected artists.
Sir Kyffin Williams was a passionate advocate for the arts on Anglesey and was and active and enthusiastic supporter of the work of Oriel Ynys Môn since its opening in 1991.
Kyffin Williams generously donated over 400 original works of art and sculpture to Oriel Ynys Môn, ranging from sketches to drawings to major oils. The Gallery prides itself on this large and important collection which it holds for the benefit of the people of Anglesey and its visitors.
Oriel Kyffin Williams will have a dynamic and changing programme of exhibitions displaying the artists’ work. This will range from Oriel Ynys Môn’s own collection to collections borrowed from institutions and individuals.
