City group plans sculptures event

Decatur Daily Democrat:

People coming from out of town to view Decatur's sculptures? A special event featuring those sculptures?

It could materialize in the next year or so if a group of citizens is able to organize and bring to fruition what they're calling the Decatur Sculpture Walk. Current plans call for the walk to take place August 18-25 of next year, prior to the annual Kekionga Festival.

"The idea is to make Decatur a place to come to see the arts," Mayor John Schultz said at Tuesday night's city council meeting. "It would put 5 to 10 sculptures downtown in conjunction with the Kekionga Festival and grow by 3 to 6 every year."
