The National Contemporary Art Gallery for Wales is a proposed branded network of art galleries distributing Wales' existing contemporary art collection. It is being developed by a partnership of Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales, the Arts Council of Wales, the Welsh Government and the National Library of Wales. The proposal formed part of the 2021 Welsh Labour–Plaid Cymru agreement.
The gallery was also proposed to have a main site, alongside a network of existing venues, although due to budget constraints, a main site was scrapped by Cabinet Secretary for Culture and Social Justice, Lesley Griffiths, in July 2024.
