Little Art Camas event this weekend
Little Art Camas, a two-day community exhibition of original small-scale artworks created by local artists, will be held from 5 to 9 p.m. Friday, Feb. 21, and from noon to 5 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 22, at Fuel Medical, 314 N.E. Birch St., Camas.
Each art piece is priced at $20. Sales from the exhibit, which is coordinated by the Downtown Camas Association (DCA), will benefit downtown Camas’ public art efforts.
Tickets to the event cost $5 at the door, are free for children age 12 and younger, and are good for admission on Friday and Saturday.
“Little Art Camas is all about making original art accessible to everyone,” Carrie Schulstad, executive director of the DCA, stated in a press release. “Whether you are one of the artists or starting an art collection, this event is a fun and engaging way to share art with each other. It will be really fun to see the excitement when the cowbell rings and (people) can start buying. The energy in the lobby last year was electric, so this year we will ring cowbells to start the buying so everyone can hear. The art is impressive and is a genuinely diverse showcase, and it helps support more public art in downtown Camas as well.”
The event will feature live music, appetizers and wine and art demonstrations. New pieces not featured on Friday evening will be displayed on Saturday.
