Seymour and District Art Society held its Art Beyond the Divide exhibition at the weekend, providing a chance for the community to come together and celebrate visual art and artists.
The show is run by local and regional artists for fellow artists.
There were 270 works entered in the exhibition, created by 194 artists from all across the state.
A series of awards and prize money were available for successful entrants. All works displayed were available for purchase.
Seymour and District Art Society member Lynda Robinson, who had multiple works in the exhibition, won the prize for best pastel work with a picture of her granddaughter, Ellie.
Mrs Robinson said it was a relief that the show was such a success after being postponed by the floods.
“The floods were just very scary. We were here that day and we could hardly hear ourselves speak because of the rain on the roof,” she said.
“We all left at that stage, but we had half hung the work, then we came back a couple of days later to take it all down again.
“I ended up with about 30 works in my little studio and a couple of people took paintings home too and then we all came back and hung them again (last) week.”
The Old Courthouse, home of the Seymour and District Art Society, was impacted by the floods and is expected to take about eight months to repair.
The group is looking to find alternative spaces to hang works and looking into ideas such as pop-up art shows while the space is being repaired.
