Residents, staff and volunteers at Presbyterian Care Tasmania Legana home have tried their hand at modelling, putting together a "nude" calendar.
The home's care services manager Peter Francis said the idea came courtesy of the home's travelling trivia team, which overheard residents of another home talking about making a calendar.
Mr Francis said the calendar idea was brought to a fund-raising meeting, and it quickly turned into "let's make a nude calendar".
In the vein of the hit film Calendar Girls, each month takes on a different theme.
"We've got Easter, St Patrick's Day, Melbourne Cup, Christmas - and we've had an absolute ball," Mr Francis said.
"It involved residents, volunteers, staff and even a few pets from our pet therapy program."
The "and they grow more beautiful every year" calendar will be launched on November 21, and will include an exhibition of all the photos from the calendar - as well as a couple of extras that didn't quite make it to print.
Anyone wishing to buy a calendar can contact the Legana Presbyterian Care Tasmania home.
