Swansea theatre to become cultural hub

Swansea's historic Grand Theatre will become a cultural and digital hub for diverse communities.

Race Council Cymru, the country’s lead umbrella body for Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities, will begin upgrading the 123-year-old building's Arts Wing later this month, and a diverse art programme will be delivered from next year.

About 20 community groups, including the African Community Centre, the Chinese in Wales Association, and the Swansea Women’s Asylum Seeker & Refugee Support Group, have been leading consultation on the project.
