Partition panel covering attachment assembly

A partition panel assembly for covering open spans within a partition system that includes a frame assembly including a plurality of spaced structural frame members each including a plurality of forwardly-exposed spaced apertures, the panel assembly comprising:

• a panel member having an outer exposed surface, an inner surface and a peripheral edge;
• at least one panel frame member coupled to the inner surface of the panel member proximate the peripheral edge of the panel member;
• and
• at least one clip member slidably received between the panel member and the at least one panel frame member, and including an engagement portion adapted to engage at least one aperture of a structural frame member of a partition frame assembly, and that is operably coupled with the at least one panel frame member such that the at least one clip member is adapted to slide with respect to the panel member when the partition panel assembly is operably coupled with a partition frame assembly, thereby allowing for expansion and contraction of the panel member.
