Support us

As a registered charity, the generosity of our visitors, supporters, trusts and foundations helps us to bring exciting experiences in con­tem­porary art, performance and film to Wales.

Your support makes it possible for us to show multiple world-class exhibitions, bring you over 2000 cinema screenings, more than 400 live performances and many more workshops, classes, talks and events each year.

It allows us to keep our doors open as a person-centred community hub with the arts at its core, and to support hundreds of local artists by providing space, equipment, funding and advice.

Most of our income comes from ticket and Caffi Bar sales, room hire, fundraising endeavours and donations. So, each time you visit us – whether you’re grabbing a takeaway coffee, sitting down for a bite to eat or enjoying a film on the big screen – you’re directly helping us to continue our creative work.

Theatr Iolo and Kitsch & Sync Colelctive perform on a stage at Chapter. In a marquee style with large floral boxes to the side, the performners are extending their arms in a row of three, the middle performer with their arts outstreched above everyone else.

We’ve been a catalyst for creativity and critical thinking since 1971.
