Project Shoe City

The Mayor Dave Wood Youth Advisory Council is launching a unique art initiative in Mishawaka to celebrate the city’s history and strengthen community bonds, particularly among the younger generation. This project seeks to honor the iconic Red Ball Jet Shoe—a beloved symbol of Mishawaka’s past—as a way to connect generations, spark creativity, and enhance our city's sense of unity. Our vision is to blend art with history, transforming modern spaces into vibrant tributes that showcase Mishawaka’s rich heritage.
