It's diorama season at the Ninth Street Community Garden & Park



It's peephole season again at the Ninth Street Community Garden & Park on the northeast corner of Avenue C... as East Village artist J. Kathleen White has unveiled her 2015 collection of dioramas.

This year's theme: "Vital Niches"...



An EVG reader shared these photos...







White started creating and sharing the dioramas along the fence here in 2005. Here's her work from 2014 ... 2013 ... 2012 ... and 2011....

The 2015 edition will be up through Nov. 2.

P.S.

There's a free salsa concert Saturday afternoon in the garden...

Reader report: Someone dumped the turtles from the Ninth Street Community Garden into a hole


[At the garden last spring via Bobby Williams]

An EVG Facebook friend shared a WTF story from over at the Ninth Street Community Garden at Avenue C. Last week, someone gathered the garden's turtles ... and dumped them into a hole in the back of the garden. Thankfully, Garden volunteers recovered the turtles. None of the turtles were apparently hurt.

Per our Facebook friend: "So sad that someone would do that ... those turtles are a bit of a main attraction. Hopefully they'll be left alone."
