Across the weekend around $24,000 was raised from sales of artwork and all the money will go to help people in need.
Susan Curran said it was an amazing weekend.
"All of this money is going to local individuals and families who were badly affected by the summer fires and local organisations who are helping them out," she said.
"A huge thank you to firstly the generous artists, secondly the wonderful committee who did all the work getting the event together and finally all those who came along and spend their money for such a good cause."

Artwork was donated from 50 artists, worth approximately $37,000 and included 98 major pieces, along with 50 smaller ones.
On Saturday morning, crowds had to wait outside to get in due to COVID restriction. In just the first two hours $10,000 worth of art was sold .
A steady steam of people still went through the gallery on Saturday afternoon and Sunday.
"Fortunately the Millhouse Artists are very experienced at hanging exhibitions so the hanging went very smoothly," Susan said.
"The other groups involved, the Nulladolla Potters, Murramarang Spinners, Narrawallee Proggy Ruggers, Mulberry Tree And Thursday Knitters also set up their fabulous displays."
