We held our annual Halloween yesterday with visitors from the neighborhood and from all over the world – as is the beauty of NYC.
We had Muslims, Catholics, Protestants, Jews, Buddhists and atheists (and others). Languages ‘spoken’: French, Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, English, and American Sign Language.
In the words of our terrific organizer Jane Barrer, Co-Chair of M’Finda Kalunga Garden:
“Today we had a sweet Halloween party for the neighborhood children…and in the light of the dreadful events that also took place today it was wonderful to see innocent little ones, gentle parents, giggling girls and boys, helpful teenagers and, as always, the awesome gardeners of M’Finda Kalunga who never stop giving of themselves.”
