There has been extensive media coverage across Wales of the centennial exhibition at Oriel Plas Glyn-y-Weddw.
In the arts programme Stiwdio on BBC Radio Cymru on 20 February, presenter Nia Roberts interviewed Jonah’s children Peter and Naomi, Nia Roberts (contemporary arts curator at Plas Glyn-y-Weddw; no relation to the presenter), Robin Llywelyn (grandson of Clough Williams-Ellis and manager of Portmeirion) and the sculptor Meic Watts, who for several years shared a workshop with Jonah near Penrhyndeudraeth.
