THE Malvern Terrace Artists sold 24 paintings and a number of specially made cards during their annual exhibition held at the weekend.

Organiser Pat Claytor said the event, held in Hanley Swan Village Hall, was a great success and helped raise £350 for the League of Friends of Malvern Hospital.

She said: "About 200 visitors came over the weekend. They all had cups of tea and the artists sold about 24 pictures and quite a lot of cards.

"We're a nice, very friendly society and are always looking for new members."
