The society's art teachers and students, plus members of the art community, will have new works on display for viewing and sales.

There will be about 100 paintings on show in the exhibition at the Port Macquarie Art Society's Manor House headquarters at 198 Hastings River Drive.

Art tutor Judy Jelsma said there would be an eclectic mix of styles from realistic to abstract.

The public is welcome to attend the exhibition opening from 7pm on November 25. The event will be COVID-safe with a glass of Christmas cheer.

Lesley Sargent and Kerry Wheeldon will be among those with artworks on display in the exhibition.

The freedom and challenge of painting appeals to Ms Wheeldon who will have at least two paintings on display.

"There are lots of different styles, so I think there will be something [at the exhibition] to suit everybody, if they are in the market to buy," she said.

Ms Sargent hopes to have about five paintings in the exhibition. She said painting was an enjoyable pastime.

Port Macquarie Art Society's end of year exhibition continues until late January. Viewing the exhibition after the opening night is by appointment only.

Call Maureen Cooke on 0409 820694 or Judy Jelsma on 0415 892396 to make an appointment to view the exhibition.

Port Macquarie Art Society promotes the advancement of the fine arts and artistic development in the area.
