Dyma weithdy galw heibio lle gall bawb o bob oed a phob gallu fod yn greadigol a chreu celf wedi'i ysbrydoli gan Gastell Cas-gwent.

Bydd ein hartist preswyl, Miriam Vincent (Minnie La La Designs), yno i ddangos rhai technegau syml tynnu llun, gan ddangos nad oes rhaid creu campweithiau i deimlo mantais creadigrwydd.

Bydd yr holl ddeunyddiau yno i chi.

----------------------------------------------------------------

People of all ages and abilities can get creative in this drop-in activity and make a work of art inspired by Chepstow Castle.

Our artist in residence, Miriam Vincent (Minnie La La Designs), will be offering some simple drawing techniques, helping you realise that you don’t need to produce a masterpiece to get the benefits from creativity.

Yn syth ar ôl y goncwest, anfonodd Wiliam y Gorchfygwr ei ddyn ffyddlon, William FitzOsbern, i adeiladu a gwarchod castell newydd ar droad afon Gwy lle mae Cas-gwent bellach yn sefyll.
