DECATUR, Ill. (WCIA) — The city of Decatur is searching for volunteer painters to help out a good cause.

After starting work on a large parking lot mural at Johns Hill Magnet School, Decatur is looking for some helping hands to finish the job.

Volunteers are invited to the school on Saturday, Oct. 26 between 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. to help paint. Materials will be provided, and painters are advised to dress accordingly considering they can get paint on their clothes.

Anyone interested in helping can sign up on the city’s website or call Neighborhood Program Specialist Connie Hamilton at 217-450-2350.
