The Tabernacle (Welsh : Y Tabernacl ) is a centre for the performing arts in Machynlleth, Powys, Wales. It is located in a former Wesleyan chapel, which was converted in the mid-1980s and opened as a performing arts space in 1986. Since then, the Museum of Modern Art has grown alongside it, with six exhibition spaces. [1]

The Tabernacle's auditorium seats 350 people and regularly hosts chamber and choral music, drama, lectures and conferences. It also has translation booths, a grand piano, recording facilities and a cinema screen. There is a bar in the foyer. There are music teaching rooms and an art studio in Ty Llyfnant. The green room doubles as a language laboratory where lifelong learning classes are held.
The Machynlleth Festival takes place in the auditorium annually in late August. [2]
Since acquiring accreditation from the Museums, Archives and Libraries Division of the Welsh Government in 2016, the Trust owning the Tabernacle is known as "MOMA Machynlleth".
