About

Pontardawe Arts Centre is a multi-purpose cultural venue in Pontardawe, Neath Port Talbot, Wales. The building is owned by Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council and is located in Herbert Street.

The Arts Centre opened in October 1996. It was converted from the former Pontardawe Public Hall and Institute, built in 1908 and opened by Adelina Patti; the building had gone out of use and was derelict when a scheme to improve provision for the arts in the town was conceived by Lliw Valley Borough Council in 1993.

Pontardawe Arts Centre receives core funding from the Arts Council of Wales, and maintains a programme that includes:

Drama – adult and child, Welsh language and English language

Entertainment – adult and child including pantomime
