Creativity, arts and culture are in Cardigan's DNA. Mwldan is at its heart. A vibrant centre for the arts, and an independent, registered charity, we've been celebrating the local and the global since 1983. With a vibrant year-round programme of live performances and a diverse film programme across our three screens, we welcome over 250,000 people a year through our doors here in Cardigan, with many more experiencing our work through our touring productions and recorded releases worldwide.

We are currently recruiting for a new Chief Executive & Creative Director of Mwldan.

For more than four decades, Mwldan has been at the heart of cultural life in Cardigan and west Wales. It is a place where communities gather, where Welsh language and culture are celebrated, where audiences encounter work from Wales and around the world, and where creativity is woven into everyday life.

As we look ahead, we are seeking a new leader who can honour Mwldan’s history whilst helping shape its next chapter - someone with imagination, resilience and strategic clarity, and with a genuine belief in the role that culture can play in sustaining communities and creating opportunity.
