Meet Me at the Museum

Owain Wyn Evans at St Fagans National Museum of History

Broadcaster Owain Wyn Evans takes his husband Arran to St Fagans National Museum of History in Cardiff, where lovingly preserved buildings from different historical periods and contemporary exhibitions bring the story of Wales to life. As they explore the grounds, they uncover the extraordinary tales behind places like the Workmen’s Institute and pub, buy sweets in the traditional shop and discuss how a strong lineage of protest and activism has shaped Wales’ history. Notes: The exhibition ‘Wales is… Proud’ is at St Fagans National Museum of History until 5 March 2023. The exhibition ‘Wales is… remembering Terrence Higgins’ is at St Fagans until 19 March 2023.

Famous faces take their best mate, their mum, their neighbour (whoever they want) for an afternoon at a favourite museum or gallery. As well as getting a peek behind the scenes, seeing what makes a museum tick, it's also the starting point for some great conversations about life, the universe and everything. As well as a chance to eat lots of cake in the cafe. <a href="https://www.artfund.org/whats-on/meet-me-at-the-museum" target="_blank">Meet Me at the Museum is published by Art Fund</a>, the UK’s national charity for art, which raises money for museums and galleries through the <a href="https://www.artfund.org/national-art-pass" target="_blank">National Art Pass</a> – a neat little card that gets you free or reduced-price entry to hundreds of great cultural venues and exhibitions around the country.
