The “Gift of Art” will feature original works by members of the newly formed Artisans Guild of Camas at an exhibit throughout the month of November.

The guild is inviting the public to kick off the event on Friday, at the First Friday Art Walk Reception from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Second Story Gallery, located above the Camas Library at 625 NE Fourth Avenue in downtown Camas.

“Our leadership team is thrilled to partner with Second Story Gallery to present the new show,” said Deborah Nagano, co-president of the AGC along with Sharon Buckmaster. “We have titled this show ‘Gift of Art’ because it’s just in time for holiday giving.”

All works will be for sale.
