The pop-up Arts Collective Exhibition in the CBD will remain open for a few more weeks, although with reduced opening days.

Organisers say the show has attracted a steady stream of visitors since opening in January, with artists delighted by the strong sales.

Exhibition convener David Poole said 460 artworks had been sold since the exhibition opened on January 17.

“The total value of sales is close to $45,000,” he said.

From next week, the exhibition will be open three days a week – Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 10am to 4pm. The final day will be Easter Monday on April 6.

The exhibition is being held in the spacious former Dick Smith building at the lower end of The Strand.
