On May 11th, 2023, Bridgman High School Art Club began work on a community mural in downtown Bridgman. With help from art teacher Mr. Zapor, students designed the 400-square foot rug mural for a courtyard project in downtown Bridgman.
Other elements will be added to the courtyard before it starts being used for live music and community gatherings. The entire project is expected to be ready in time for the ribbon cutting ceremony set for June 26.
