Children’s Garden Mural Unveiled

As about 50 neighbors and guests looked on, the Children’s Garden Mural was unveiled on Saturday, September 29 in the garden abutting the soundwall on Laburnam Crescent.  Twenty neighborhood children worked on the mural over the summer, under the direction of artists Joseph Sorrentino and Shawn Dunwoody. 

The three panels that comprise the mural depict children from the area as well as scenes from Upper Monroe’s past.  Now that the mural is up, attention will be turned toward re-planting the garden next spring (part of it was dug up when the posts for the mural were put in).  We hope to expand the butterfly garden and put in a shade garden.  In the meantime, stop by the soundwall end of Laburnam and see this beautiful new addition to our neighborhood!
