The art sale took place last month at St Andrew’s Church hall.
An initial ‘Off the Wall’ art sale held as a fundraiser for the Friends of Resthaven Foundation proved such a success that organisers hope it will become an annual fixture.

The art sale was held at the St Andrew’s Church Hall late last month. The items for sale included artwork by members of the Cambridge Society of Arts, and pieces donated by members of the public.
The sale’s main organiser, Friends of Resthaven’s Laurie Graham, said the day had ‘exceeded all expectations’. While exact takings were unknown at this stage, he said proceeds would go towards purchasing equipment to help residents of the Cambridge Resthaven care centres.
Jono McCullough of Rob May Builders donated the boards and frames on which the artwork was displayed.
The Friends of Resthaven Foundation’s focus is to fundraise for services, care options and aged-care education for the communities under its care.
