When Azita Footohi strolls through downtown Camas, she often finds herself doing a double take at the Ballard & Call gallery.Footohi’s paintings, including her grand prize winner from the Camtown Youth Festival, are displayed in the entryway, a first for the budding artist.
“It was my goal to get a grand prize at Camtown, and it is so nice to see something displayed,” she said. “This is pretty cool. I now realize how much it actually means. This is really good for my future.”
