The SVA Members are a group of artists and members of Silver Vine Arts residing upstairs at Queen of Bradgate on High Street. The space has encouraged artists to collaborate, share in ideas and respond to the walls that echo the history of the aged building.

In the lead up to Summer Art Trail 2015 the residing artists produced works that featured in a group exhibition alongside other artists who applied to the festival’s Open Call.
