(La Porte, IN) - A ribbon cutting is scheduled August 22 for a new mural in La Porte’s downtown.

The ribbon cutting will begin at 12 p.m. at Hotspot Café at 602 Lincolnway where the mural recently went up on one of the outside walls of the building.

The first 50 people showing up will receive prints of the mural signed by the muralist, Cheri Lee Charlton of Chicago along with a chance to meet her. There will also be gift card giveaways to local businesses, mural themed merchandise, light refreshments and cash bar.

The winner of the mural naming contest will also be announced.

“We are grateful to all the partners who helped make this amazing project a reality,” said Mayor Tom Dermody.

Charlton will also be one of the speakers during the ribbon cutting ceremony.

The new mural is the fourth one in downtown with another one planned this summer.
