In October 2007, the Arts Partnership of Greater Spartanburg opened the Chapman Cultural Center—an 87,000-sq-ft multi-functional facility housing a variety of cultural and learning institutions: a dance center, art and pottery studios, a science center, history museums, a gift shop, offices, and an elegant 500-seat auditorium. By locating many programs under one roof, the Arts Partnership sought to create a mutually supportive environment that could maximize the programs’ impact on the city. Spartanburg’s past was defined by a thriving textile industry. With most of that industry now gone, the Center provides a new and enduring focal point for culture, learning, and opportunity.
Prominent Features
Specifiers selected DORMA Architectural Hardware for both external and internal doorways throughout the Center. A primary design goal was to create a cohesive whole from a variety of parts. The versatile DORMA products selected met both aesthetic and functional requirements—offering variety in style and architectural finish combined with durability, strength, reliability, and security. DORMA products installed include 8900 Series Heavy-Duty Door Closers, 900 Series Heavy-Duty Stops/Holders, 9000 Series Heavy-Duty Exit Devices, CL800 Cylindrical Locksets, and PS Series Power Supplies.
