A Salisbury gallery is bringing together 20 “outstanding” artists for a summer exhibition of contemporary fine art.

Vanner Gallery’s annual group show, The Mixtape, will open on August 14 and run until September 12, bringing together artists working across a variety of creative styles.

The show introduces visitors to artists new to the gallery and brings their work together under one roof.

It gives locals and visitors the chance to discover unfamiliar artists at the gallery’s annual summer show.

The exhibition also features work by Ros Lawless, Steve Neville, Jack Paffett, Martyn Simpson, Mark Elliott Smith, Luke St Leger, William Ruller, Fraser Taylor, and Cliff Warner.

Vanner Gallery calls the summer group exhibition “one of the most exciting shows of the year."

The mixed-format show brings a broad range of work together, with the gallery aiming to “offer as many types of work to choose from” as possible.

The Mixtape runs at Vanner Gallery in Salisbury from Friday, August 14, to Saturday, September 12.

More information is available on the Vanner Gallery website.

Vanner Gallery opened at 45 High Street in September 2021 and is open from 10am to 5pm, Tuesday to Saturday.
