Also, <br />westbound access from Pokagon Street to 933 and eastbound access from Wakewa to 933 will be <br />closed. <br />Memorial Hospital, in conjunction with local artist Christopher Stackowicz, has organized a <br />community -wide effort to create a mural that enhances this northern entryway to South Bend. <br />The mural highlights South Bend's architecture, acting "as a link between where we have been <br />and where we can go next," Stackowicz says. <br />Project organizers welcomes volunteers to help paint the mural. Those interested in volunteering <br />for two- or three -hour shifts can contact Sarah Heintzelman at s.heintzehnan1920 @gmail.com. <br />min <br />
