NCCCS Art Show Highlights A-B Tech Talent

Sharon Trammel, Humanities/Fine Arts instructor, painted the "Evening Sunset" series selected for the North Carolina Community College System's annual art exhibit.

Spencer Black, Educational Technology Services, had three untitled photos of a bridge at Lake Lure, the former Champion paper mill in Canton and scenery in Vinalhaven, Maine, chosen for the exhibit.

Ten pieces of artwork created by staff members, students and retirees of A-B Tech have been chosen for display in the North Carolina Community College System's annual art exhibit at the System Office in Raleigh.

Martin Lancaster, President Emeritus of the NCCCS, selected the pieces for inclusion in the exhibit, which opened in mid-March and will run through December. Nearly 150 pieces, representing about 50 community colleges across the state, will be showcased. These include quilts and other fiber art, iron sculptures, paintings, pottery, prints, baskets, photography and stained glass.

Student Abby Fleming had her piece "Leaves in Water" selected and student Li Newton had "Cherokee Clan Dancers," "Grandpa Elliot," and "Morning Bells Sail Away" selected.

Humanities/Fine Arts Instructor Sharon Trammel's "Evening Sunset" series is included in the exhibit with retired instructor Nolan Darnell's "Foxes' Tails." Spencer Black, Educational Technology Services, had three untitled photos of a bridge at Lake Lure, the former Champion paper mill in Canton and scenery in Vinalhaven, Maine, chosen for the exhibit.

The artwork is displayed in the hallways, conference rooms, executive suites and other public spaces throughout the six-story Caswell Building, headquarters for the NCCCS. The building is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays with tours available for public visitors. To arrange a tour, call 919-807-6962.
