Manic Street Preachers musician Nicky Wire will be exhibiting new work at Narberth Museum next month.
Nicky, best known as the lyricist and bass player of the Manics, will be opening his new exhibition ‘My Little Empire’ to the public on August 6.
This is his second solo art exhibition and is being organised and guest curated by Mark Lewis, who worked with Nicky on his debut solo exhibition in 2018 at Tenby Museum and Art Gallery.

The Welsh rocker was on hand to open his first ever exhibition - ‘Paintings and Polaroids’ - in the seaside town that holds a special place in his heart, where he owns a property; and was joined by Manics bandmate and lead singer James Dean Bradfield.
The new exhibition will feature 26 paintings, all highlighting Nicky’s passion for Polaroid photography, and the works will be available for purchase.
These will also be available for viewing online (at https://www.narberthmuseum.co.uk) from August 6 and can be purchased in person or over the telephone (50% non-refundable deposit required).
“Thrilled to announce that, for the second time, I am working with Nicky Wire of the Manic Street Preachers on a solo art exhibition of his work,” said Mark.
“So proud that he chose me again to curate his exhibition; and he’s such a nice guy to work with!”
