The society's publicity officer Kaye Partridge said the art group, which is based near Harris Farm Markets, changes its exhibition every two months. 

"We're going to introduce a guest artist or a featured artist every month featuring mainly our own members," Mrs Partidge said.

"They will have a wall of their paintings."

The featured artists are likely to start in June.

The guest artists will also be present at the exhibition on weekends to people can meet them and learn more about their artworks and style.

"Our main aim is to encourage an interest in art," Mrs Partridge said.

The latest exhibition has no theme, however Orange Art Society president David Mason said society members can enter works for the President's Cup, which this year has a derelict building theme.

"The president selects a topic each year," Mr Mason said.

"They can paint anything to do with a derelict building.

"Wood work's my trade and I thought I would do something that evolves around that."

Mr Mason said the idea behind the new and planned exhibits was to make people more aware of the art society.
