The Fishers Arts & Culture Commission will begin its work next month, and the city has announced the members of the commission.

Here are the appointees set to serve two-year terms:

Cecilia Coble, an at-large member of the Fishers City Council.

David Decker, owner of ACo, a remodeling company and co-founder of Hub & Spoke

Jeremiah Follis, a social studies teacher at HSE High School, a sculptor  and founder of Olio Productions.

Marisol Sanchez, Vice President & General Counsel at Endress + Hauser

Jocelyn Vare, Owner of Propeller Marketing and former president of the Fishers Arts Council

All members are appointed by the Mayor of Fishers, Scott Fadness.

The Commission was created by a city ordinance enacted in August of this year, with the goal of a more strategic and comprehensive approach to the arts locally.

(Note:  earlier versions of this story said Jeremiah Follis is an art teacher in the HSE Schools…Mr. Follis is a social studies teacher.  LarryInFishers apologizes for the error)
