“For this exhibition, we have 14 artists with over 50 pieces of art,” Mr Davidson said.
“There are all sorts of art, every medium you can think of, portrait, abstract, fine art.”
The exhibition will be held in Bonny’s, the little room in the bistro at the Caledonian.
Featured artists include Cindy Lee Pedrana, Giselle Bolotin, Nikia Snow, Sharon Hocking, Isstra Bevilacqua, Daniel Wein and Caine Mansfield.
“All of the art is for sale, and we will make the majority of sales at the opening on Friday night,” Mr Davidson said.
“It is just a short and sweet pop-up weekend exhibition, with everyone welcome to the opening and through the weekend.”

Mr Davidson, who has been retired from a career as a primary teacher for the past four years, describes himself as an art collector rather than an artist.
“I know it sounds strange, but I am not an artist, I am just an art collector,” he said.
“I have 322 pieces on my walls at home. I've got art on every wall, every room, 10 centimetres apart, ceiling to floor.”
Murray River Art represents 19 artists from around the local area.
“I’ve got my own little business called Murray River Art, it is a little hobby business and I’m doing it particularly for the artists,” Mr Davidson said.
“I am doing it to help local artists, and they appreciate that.”
