In an effort to make art more accessible, Bill Gorelick and Central Piedmont Community College have constructed an op
en gallery space on the College's Levine Campus in Matthews, NC. The campus, which is somewhat industrial in its design, offers an ideal space for a dynamic layout that can be transformed based on the featured exhibit.
Penland School of Crafts Series begins it's tour around the CPCC Campuses at the Levine Campus. The show features everything from jewelry to oil paintings from a variety of artists. The exhibit will be on display for the 2016 Spring Semester. Many of the items will be for sale.

Claytor served as a CPCC trustee from 1977 to 1993, fulfilling appointments by N.C. Governor Jim Hunt and the Mecklenburg County Board of County Commissioners. He chaired the CPCC board from 1985 to 1993. In addition, he has served on the CPCC Foundation Board of Directors for many years, including multiple terms as board vice president.
