So, ChathamArts President, Lesley Landis, is participating in the current session of the regional class of Leadership Triangle. A recent class focused on Pittsboro. A variety of leaders from across county lines spent the day on guided tours of Historic Chatham Mills, Piedmont Biofuels, Carolina Tiger Rescue, and the Sustinability Programs and Culinary Arts Program at CCCC. Many were visiting Chatham County for the very first time.
