This year, as well as exhibiting her paintings and enamel jewellery, Forum stalwart Katherine Reekie has created some Victorian-style 3-D viewers revealing surreal scenes.
Regular exhibitor Sassy Luke has more religious knickers and prints, and new-comer Linda King shares her beautiful hand-painted birds and hands.
The show runs until 21 December and is a reliable source of unique Christmas gifts for everyone.
