Hoosier rocker John Mellencamp is donating an archived assortment of his life and work to Indiana College, IU President Pamela Whitten introduced Friday (March 3).
The gathering will embrace unique artistic works, pictures, devices and different vital memorabilia associated to his music, art work, social activism and philanthropy, Whitten stated.
“His assortment can be an unbelievable useful resource for arts students and a transparent supply of inspiration to our college students,” Whitten stated.
A sculpture honoring Mellencamp’s creative legacy can be commissioned for the Bloomington campus, Whitten stated. The sculpture will sit close to the Superb Arts Plaza on the campus and symbolize the sturdy connection Mellencamp has to his southern Indiana roots.
