The Gallery Yr Oriel presents Lyndon Thomas ‘The Promised Land’
THE GALLERY YR ORIEL Newport Pembs is delighted to host a new exhibition for Lyndon Thomas to celebrate his 80th year.
Lyndon’s artistic career has spanned five decades that include painting, pottery and wood turning.
Lyndon focused on painting from 2008, and evolved a method of working in acrylic on paper, using painting knives, with the bulk of his subject matter being the landscape of North Pembrokeshire and Lleyn Peninsula, the two western extremities of Wales.
The exhibition is representative of work produced over the past year, and will also include some selected pieces of pottery from his collection, and the title, The Promised Land, sums up his feelings towards the beautiful land and seascapes that are found throughout Wales.
The exhibition launch is on Friday, June 24 from 5 – 7pm, there are paper catalogues available, and an online e-catalogue is also available on our website www.thegallery-yroriel.com/whats-on
We look forward to seeing you all at the launch which is open to everybody, and we will be serving refreshments.

10th anniversary of the Pembroke Dock Heritage Centre
PEMBROKE Dock Heritage Centre is celebrating its tenth anniversary. Since the museum was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 2014, the centre has gone from strength to strength.
Today the museum is a ‘go to’ for information on the military, maritime and social history of Pembroke Dock, an archive of specialist research knowledge on the role of the Sunderland flying boats, and a beacon for Star Wars fans.
The importance of the Heritage Centre will be celebrated on Saturday April 27th with an Open Day.
The museum will be free to enter, from 11am to 3pm.
The Heritage Centre was the culmination of many heritage initiatives and over the years so many volunteers have given their time, skills, energies and enthusiasm to these – from the Gun Tower Museum to the Flying Boat Interpretation Centre, the Fleet Surgeons House and now in the magnificent Royal Dockyard Chapel.
Those at the Heritage centre look forward to welcoming everyone, especial any former volunteers and family members of those involved in past years.
