A special community tribute honoring the life of Hailey Buzbee is now on display at Fishers City Hall, offering residents a place to reflect, remember, and show support for her family.

The tribute features a portrait of Hailey painted by Fall Creek Junior High art teacher Shelley Feeney, who taught Hailey during her time at the school. The portrait was created as part of the school’s Fall Creek Junior High exhibit and depicts Hailey as she was known by those around her—vibrant, joyful, and full of life.

Before beginning the work, Feeney spoke with Hailey’s family to ensure the portrait would honor their daughter in a meaningful and respectful way. The finished piece now hangs in City Hall as a focal point of remembrance during the month-long exhibit.

Displayed across from the portrait is a large blank canvas, created specifically to invite community participation. Visitors are encouraged to leave messages, reflections, and words of support for the Buzbee family. City and arts council officials say the canvas is intended to serve as a shared space for collective healing and compassion during an incredibly difficult time.

The canvases were installed this week and will remain on display throughout the month. Members of the public are invited to visit Fishers City Hall during regular hours to view the artwork and, if they choose, add a message to the community canvas.

Organizers hope the exhibit will provide a quiet moment of connection and remembrance, while also demonstrating the depth of care and solidarity within the Fishers community.

“Our thoughts remain with the Buzbee family and all who loved Hailey,” the city said in a statement. “We invite the community to take a moment to honor her life alongside us.”
