Running from Friday through to Sunday, more than 130 people strolled through the Bendemeer Town Hall on Saturday alone, with the weather largely behaving.
Bendemeer Art Show committee secretary Margaret Hemmings said she believes the anticipation was high ahead of this year's event, given it hasn't run since 2019 due to COVID-19.
"Everybody just wanted to come out, and we've been lucky with the weather, we wanted a fine weekend and so far we've succeeded and that makes all the difference," she said.
"The hall looks the best it looks for years and I'd say this is one of our most successful show in years."

She said it was excellent to see so many people coming through, and it's a rewarding experience for the entire community, which comes together to play a role in the show.
"It brings us all together, I've actually moved out of Bendemeer but I'm still involved," she said.
"I think everybody was anticipating this and we've got the most beautiful artworks from the Bendemeer Public School and Bendemeer Preschool, so they're involved as well.
"We've got some local people who have got stalls with their handmade products and everything so it's really good."
