I spent a brilliant day with the i fyny associates and Oriel Myrddin at Carmarthenshire Museum yesterday.
i fyny is Oriel Myrddinโs artist development scheme for early career artists run in partnership with Carmarthen School of Art. The scheme aims to nurture creative talent and equip the selected i fyny associates with the skills and opportunities to pursue viable and sustainable careers from a Welsh base.
We were thinking about the Cragen Beca project and what learnings there may be in the way it developed and grew as an artist led community facing project with lots of partners, supporters and collaborators.
What a brilliant group of artists and what a great programme for supporting talented creatives in Carmarthenshire.
Join us at Oriel Myrddin Gallery on Thursday 16 June at 6pm for drinks and a private viewing of Kathryn Campbell Doddโs Cragen Beca IโR GAD! exhibition.
Set against the backdrop of the Cragen Beca Parade, Kathryn will be in conversation with Oriel Myrddin Gallery trustee, curator + lecturer Sally Moss, reflecting on her journey as an artist during this immense project.

Ar y cyntaf o Fai 2022, ar ganu chwyth cragen o wal Eglwys San Pedr, cychwynnodd Parรชd Cragen Beca yn y glaw o Oriel Myrddin aโi phrosesu i Sgwรขr Neuadd y Dref.
Mae Cragen Beca I’R GAD yn ail gyfle i weld cymuned yn dod at ei gilydd i ddathlu hanes a diwylliant Cymru a gweld y pared yn ei chyfanrwydd. Wedi’i gomisiynu’n arbennig gan Kathryn Campbell Dodd o Gragen Beca a’i ffilmio gan yr artist/gwneuthurwr ffilmiau Jacob Whittaker, mae Oriel Myrddin Gallery yn falch iawn o gyflwyno’r ail gipolwg hwn ar ddiwrnod gwirioneddol hudolus.
Yn cynnwys ffotograffiaeth o’r diwrnod gan Abby Poulson a Jason Thomas.
On the First of May 2022, on the sounding of a single conch shell blast blown from the wall of St Peterโs Church, the Cragen Beca Parade set off in the rain from Oriel Myrddin Gallery and processed to Guildhall Square.
Cragen Beca IโR GAD is a second chance to view the bringing together of a community in celebration of Welsh history and culture and see the parade in its entirety. Specially commissioned by Cragen Becaโs Kathryn Campbell Dodd and filmed by artist/filmmaker Jacob Whittaker, Oriel Myrddin Gallery are delighted to be presenting this second glimpse and what was a truly magical day. ย
Featuring photography from the day by Abby Poulson and Jason Thomas.

Qwerin is a contemporary dance performance by Osian Meilir that extends the boundaries of traditional Welsh folk dance. Taking inspiration from Queer club culture and the weaving, flowing patterns of folk dance, โQwerinโ is a Welsh folk dance with a twist. Qwerin was commissioned by the Wales Outdoor Arts Consortium through Articulture‘s ‘Open Out 2021’ callout.
Mae Qwerin yn berfformiad dawns gyfoes gan Osian Meilir sy’n estyn ffiniau’r ddawns werin Gymreig. Gan gymryd ysbrydoliaeth o ddiwylliant clwb Queer a llif patrymau clymog dawnsio gwerin, mae Qwerin yn ddawns werin Gymreig wahanol i’r arfer.
Cafodd Qwerin ei gomisiynnu gan y Consortiwm Celfyddydau Awyr Agored Cymru a hynny drwy galwad ‘AgorAllan 2021’ cwmni Articulture.

Dawnswyr Talog yw un o grwpiau dawns traddodiadol amlycaf Cymru, ac ers 1979 maent yn sicr wedi rhoi pentref bychan Talog, sydd nepell o Gaerfyrddin, ar y map!
Maeโr dawnswyr aโr cerddorion yn cyfarfod yn Neuadd Talog ond mae dylanwad Dawnswyr Talog yn ymestyn dipyn pellach na hyn. Mae cyfeillgarwch gyda thimau dawns led-led Ewrop, ac ymweliadau รข gwyliau gwerinol amrywiol wedi rhoi llwyfan rhyngwladol i Dawnswyr Talog.
Yn ogystal รข hybu dawnsio gwerin Cymreig, prif amcan Dawnswyr Talog yw diddanu a chael hwyl, oherwydd dyma syโn mynd i sicrhau bod cyfoeth ein traddodiad dawns yn parhau.
