Better Together

Lafayette Street and Bleecker Street, Manhattan - New York City

This plywood mural depicts the NOHO Community working together. It is divided into six pieces of plywood, each portraying a different image. The first piece of plywood is red with a yellow character pumping water from a fire hydrant. The second piece of plywood is orange with a blue character carrying a fire hose above its head. The third piece of plywood is yellow with a purple character crouching and carrying the fire hose. The fourth piece of plywood is green with a red character holding the fire hose. The fifth piece of plywood is blue with an orange character holding the fire hose above their head and directing it to the flower pot on the sixth piece of plywood. The sixth piece of plywood is pink with a yellow flower and "NOHO" painted on the pot. Across all of the panels is the phrase "Better Together."
