About exhibitions at the Senedd

Apply to hold an exhibition

The Senedd and Pierhead are home to a changing programme of exhibitions, giving you the opportunity to raise awareness of your organisation or community and its ambitions, issues and concerns.

Senedd Artworks

When the Senedd building first opened four artists were commissioned to provide sculptures to form part of the architecture of the building. More recently, Welsh artist Angharad Pearce Jones was commissioned to create two sculptures for the Senedd’s main public spaces to allow people to connect and learn about the Senedd and the Members who represent them.
