The Bushwick Linden Block Association Garden AKA, the Secret Garden, found a happy match with
Big City Walls and the Younity Coalition, a female urban arts collective that works in communities
across Brooklyn and NYC. But their best work (I think) is in Bushwick!

Alice, co-founder of Younity

Madge

K-Star: Bushwick girl who is still working to make it better!

Mama, founder of Big City Walls.

What we have here is clear: Strong women honouring a strong woman, Miss Avellar Hainsley, founder of the Secret Garden!

Sorry I could not show everyone and everything in my photos—but the mural is there for everyone to see—here:
