Over 200 pieces are on sale, including paintings, photographs, jewellery, pottery, glass art, baskets and a piece the group's Yola Nejman described as a sort of "witches broom made out of crystals and twigs - it's beautiful".
"It's been an impossible year for artists, we haven't been able to sell," she said.
"And people have been cooped up at home, so this is a chance to get some personalised presents for their loved ones."
Aside from the hand-made art, there will be reproductions of art on items such as tea towels, scarves and cushions, and bespoke Christmas cards and wrapping paper.
Prices range from $1 to $200, and artists who will be selling their work include Margot Huebner and Philip Salmon.
Mr Salmon used waste plastic from the shuttered Electrolux factory to make celestial lights.
The art sale is on at 49-53 Peisley Street from Thursday to Sunday 10am-3pm.
