The Black Street Boys











As an Art Instructor for Elena Houlihan's Black Street Garden Project, I had the good fortune to work with a group of spirited young men, doing community service.

That was one of the weird and the wonderful moments that permeated one of the most fulfilling assignments in my salvage career.
