about the BVA - we welcome new members

Borderland Visual Arts was formed over 25 years ago to provide a network for practicing artists living in and around Oswestry, Shropshire in the UK

There are currently over 70 members working in a range of art disciplines, including painting, printmaking, sculpture, photography, metalwork, ceramics and textiles.

Members meet socially on a regular basis to share ideas, support each other and organise events

The group holds an annual Open Studios and Art Trail on the second and third weekends in June and have regular exhibitions in The Willow Gallery in Oswestry.

There is also a permanent exhibition space in the Oswestry Library where they display their work.

Individual members exhibit all over the country in solo and group shows and their work can be found in collections throughout the world.

Our members welcome studio visits by members of the public who have made a prior appointment.

We welcome new members who may apply to join us, the annual membership fee is £20.
