It's diorama season here on the northeast corner of Avenue C outside the Ninth Street Community Garden & Park. 

East Village-based artist J. Kathleen White's 2023 collection is titled "Flowers" ...
Let's take a closer look... 

• "Home"
• "Donkey"
• "Opera"
* "Veteran"
The dioramas should be up until early November — definitely check them out in person. 

White started creating and sharing the dioramas in 2005. Revisit the early editions here.

    Well, that was fun. Guess I don't have to go and see that.
    Thanks for the enlarged photos!

    Would appreciate a *Spoiler alert* for those of us looking for a little bit of an element of surprise.

    I love these!

    To the first commenter - you can still go see them! They're magical in person, a surprise in every nook and cranny.

    Fantastic!!! Thank you for making this wonderful art accessible and free! (Compare this with walled-in art at the new Brant that does not admit local residents unless they are able to afford paying them a whopping $15.00).

    Good to see the JKW is still making them. Regret that I've become too crippled to witness them. rK
