A mural by the Boston Youth Fund Mural Crew in 2000, on the front wall of the Cooper Community Center. With a light blue background, the mural depicts smiling children and adults with various skin tones in the midst of giant plants, with stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits twirling around them. In the bottom right corner is a big open book from which plants appear to be growing.

Notes:
These photos were taken by photographers employed by the Boston Public Library during the summer of 2020, as a project to document public spaces in several Boston neighborhoods during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. The photos depict murals, sculptures, commemorative plaques, painted electrical boxes, and other works of public art in Roxbury, Dorchester, the South End, and surrounding areas. The collection was donated to Northeastern University by the Boston Public Library, as part of the partnership between the institutions through the Boston Research Center.
