Mae gwaith hefyd yn mynd rhagddo i ganfod oriel angor posibl. Ym mis Medi 2022, cawsom gyfanswm o 14 o ddatganiadau o ddiddordeb gan y sector cyhoeddus i fod yn safle angor i’r Oriel Gelf Gyfoes Genedlaethol. Gwahoddwyd pum ardal awdurdod lleol: Wrecsam, Abertawe, Merthyr Tudful, Casnewydd a Chaerdydd, i ddatblygu eu cynlluniau ymhellach.
Work is also underway to find a potential anchor gallery. In September 2022, 14 expressions of interest were received to become the anchor site for the National Contemporary Art Gallery. Five local authority areas: Wrexham, Swansea, Merthyr Tydfil, Newport and Cardiff, were invited to develop their plans further.
