Cysur y Sêr is a national-focused, Welsh-led and bilingual project that is about  developing stories in Welsh, environmental respect and leaving an impactful legacy for future generations.

Telling stories of the night sky helps make sense of constellation patterns in ways which connect us to our deep and recent past, and which orientate us, in geography, time, the seasonal year and culture. Stories are one of our most adaptable and reliable ways of passing on knowledge between generations.

As part of this project, 10 storytellers from across Wales developed retellings of Greek myths in Welsh, as well as embarking on an ambitious outreach project as part of Wales Dark Skies Week 2026, running workshops across their local communities to tell star stories, rediscover old folklore of the dark skies, and engage creatively with the constellations.
