Aron Rook paints her first mural.

Located on the corner of Third and Blackberry streets, you’ll find a mural inspired by maternal care.

Local artist Aron Rook describes the mural scene as “a magical mama figure protecting the children in the neighborhood.”

This was Aron’s first mural of this scale.

“This was a big project for me, but the thing that got me the most was that there were o many people who would say nice things. They’d yell ‘thank you’ out of their car windows and honk as they drove by. All day long this would happen. People would even pack their lunch and come sit on the sidewalk to watch me paint,” she said.
