Local muralist invites public to take part in Fishers project

Local muralist Koda Witsken is partnering with the City of Fishers and Alderman Automotive, 13875 Trade Center Drive, Fishers, to create a public art installation at Alderman Automotive.

“According to local history, the City of Fishers used to go by ‘Mudsock’ referring to the knee-high mud that caked horses as carriages pulled through the city,” Witsken said. “In celebration of Fishers’ continued history as a smart, vibrant, entrepreneurial meeting place for people, commerce, and culture, the Alderman Automotive mural will honor this ‘Mudsock’ theme by incorporating references to horses.”

Witsken wants the public’s help in making sure the mural’s design will be locally inspired.

Fishers residents are invited to submit photos of their horses, themselves or their family with a horse, or their family enjoying a horse experience in Fishers. These photos will be used as inspiration for the mural.

Click here to submit your photos. Photo submissions are due no later than 5 p.m. on Friday, June 2.
