As Kalamazoo residents and others, like tourists, begin to return to normal life, a little sprucing up is taking place as part of the welcome back. Bell's Eccentric Cafe has a new mural that is on display on its west side wall, and it's one of the biggest in the city.
This mural project began in mid April and was completed in about a month. It's the creation of Dream Scene Placemaking, with artists Anna Lee Roeder and Erik Vasilauskas. This project was originally planned for March 2020, but was postponed with the pandemic.
What's on the mural is what Bell's says it is passionate about: quality ingredients and innovations, and it also has the Brewers Associations’ Independent Seal, which Bell's says "can only be used by breweries who fit the trade group’s definition of small, independent craft brewers".
