CCC Celebrates Community College Month with Activities

4/13/22

April is Community College Month, and Clinton Community College is celebrating! The community is invited to join us for a variety of activities throughout April.

Larry Jon Davis Art Exhibit

The artwork of Larry Jon Davis is on display in the CCC Library Art Gallery through April. Larry Jon Davis graduated from Clinton High School and was inducted in the CHS Hall of Honor April 8. Davis was an art instructor at Clinton Community College in the 1980’s. His career took him to Florida. He and wife Jacquie returned to the Midwest upon retirement. A new Larry Jon Davis painting, CCC at 75, was unveiled in 2021 to celebrate the 75^th Anniversary in September. The piece features students entering and exiting the main entrance of the college, with features depicting a variety of students through generations. The colors used reflect Davis’ appreciation for deep rich hues. Davis combines cold wax into traditional oil painting process. This technique explores a whole new range of layering and texturing methods.
