Mural at midtown butterfly garden

In 2022, the Blenman-Elm Neighborhood Association opened the Jackie Kinman Butterfly Garden. The north side is a mural showing pollinators like birds, bats and butterflies:

(Fourteen years ago, there was a different mural here. Our January 10, 2010 post Mural in the mesquite shows it.)

The garden has paths, shade, and a bench to relax on. You can see more in today's post Jackie Kinman Butterfly Garden on the Tucson's Pocket Parks blog. (That second link leads to the blog's front page.)

The artist's Instagram @maxie.adler has more of her work.

As I wrote this post, Google Maps had a mistake: It listed the street corner as Waverly Street at Waverly Street. The park is at the northeast corner of Waverly Street and Treat Avenue. (If you want a street address, the park is near 2803 E. Waverly St. and 2807 E. Waverly St. GPS coordinates are 32°14'45.9"N, 110°55'51.3"W.) I reported the error to Google; maybe it will be fixed by the time you see this.
