PECHS Students taking their art 132 class in Wilma W. Daniels Gallery

PECHS Students Jimmy Bash and Kelly Frailey were pictured in the Cape Fear Community College (CFCC) press release on January 13, 2025 in their Art 132 Drawing II class. CFCC has transformed the Wilma W. Daniels Gallery dual-purpose space that serves as both a public art gallery and a Live Art Lab for student learning. This gives our students a unique opportunity to take their CFCC art classes in this dynamic space.

According to the press release, "in addition to its role as a gallery, the space now serves as a Live Art Lab where students gain invaluable, practical experience in the art world. Under the guidance of CFCC faculty and local art professionals, students are immersed in learning critical skills, including artwork installation, curation, documentation, cataloging, art handling, promotion, and gallery operations."

The Wilma W. Daniels Gallery is open to the public Monday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The gallery is currently displaying various art mediums from CFCC’s talented faculty which will run through February 15.
