Fishers unveils new mural along the Nickel Plate Trail

Ribbon cutting ceremony for the new mural

As you traverse the Nickel Plate Trail in downtown Fishers, you will encounter a new work of art, in the form of a mural painted on the police headquarters building.

The mural was introduced Wednesday morning in a special ceremony honoring artist Becky Hochhalter from Terre Haute.  The mural is a collage of all that is Fishers and also honors Fishers Police Department’s late K-9 Harlej.

“Becky’s mural embodies our vision for the city to not only represent who we are today, but who we hope to be in the future—a smart, vibrant, and entrepreneurial city energized and experienced through arts, architecture, and culture,” said David Decker, Chair of the Fishers Arts & Culture Commission, in a city news release. “The mural serves as a key activation point for the Nickel Plate Trail and is the start to many exciting projects to come.”

The mural was funded by the Fishers Arts & Culture Commission (FACC).
