PARTNERING FOR AN ARTFUL CAUSE

Neighbor by Neighbor partnered with the Neighborhood Hotel in New Buffalo for a Community Mural Painting Day. The community was invited to help bring a piece of New Buffalo history to life on the exterior of 115 N. Barton Street. All donations benefited Neighbor by Neighbor.

The artwork honors Captain Wessel D. Whittaker—whose schooner ran aground in an 1834 Lake Michigan storm.  It serves as an under-discovered but highly walkable hidden gem in the city's downtown core.
