(Michigan City, IN) - A mural will be created in Michigan City to mark the 60th anniversary of Sullair.
The mural will be painted in the 900 block of Michigan Boulevard, according to the Lubeznik Center for the Arts, which facilitated the painting donated by Hitachi Global Air Power, the current owners of Sullair.

"The arts add a vibrant element to the Michigan City landscape, as well as unite and transform the community," LCA executive director Janet Bloch said.
Hitachi has selected East Chicago artist Felix Maldonado to create the mural; and LCA will host a series of public meetings to gather input from local residents regarding what they want the painting to reflect.
“We are proud to give back to the city we have called home for 60 years,” said Hitachi President & CEO Hideki Fujimoto.
The public can learn more about the prospective mural and its artist, ask questions and voice their ideas at Mayor Angie Nelson Deuitch's town hall meeting at American Legion Post 451 at 121 Skwiat Legion Ave. from 5:30-7 p.m. on May 22.
