Conversations at Clynfyw is a forum for recitals, exhibitions, discussions, and workshops about art, music, science, and society. In an intimate country house setting, small audiences of forty to fifty people connect to exchange ideas.
Exploring eclectic subjects and novel formats for dialogue, exhibition, and performance, each event will include opportunities for the audience to engage with performers, artists, and each other in a relaxed social setting.
