The Mayor of Knox has been coordinating with the Starke County Youth Club about an artistic addition for the downtown area.
Mayor Dennis Estok informed council members last week that the Youth Club has acquired a grant to install a statue in Serenity Gardens, the gathering space adjacent to the Nancy J. Dembowski Community Center.
Estok mentioned, “I think that coincides with what we’re trying to do in the city because that’s another thing that we want to start promoting is the arts in the City of Knox so I think it’s only fitting to partner with the Youth Club to do that.”
The statute unveiling will be held at the site at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, May 29th.
A member of the public inquired about when the Serenity Gardens mural would be finished.
Mayor Estok noted that he still needs to touch base with the artist to discuss the timeline for the completion of the project. However, he did note that he expects the artist to be able to work on it more once school is out since he is a teacher.
