Excerpt:
Miss Gloria’s Garden is a community garden on Dumaine Street that offers a wide range of classes for New Orleans youth, from gardening and cooking to music and meditation. It is also a space that is open for artists in the neighborhood to use, and houses a nonprofit, Developing Young Entrepreneurs, which uses the arts to provide guidance and create potential job opportunities.
In early January, Ward received a 30-day-notice from property management company HRI Properties to vacate the garden. It said Ward failed to provide tax returns for her business, and her lease would not be renewed.
In response, nearly 1,400 people have signed a petition to save Miss Gloria’s Garden.
“The Garden gives me a lot of clarity and peace,” said Tamarie T., a local funk musician. “And I know that if it does that for me, I know it does that for a lot of artists. Because I bring people over here and they be like, man, this is healing.”
The garden is located on the Bell Artspace Campus — a collection of low-income housing for artists. Artspace and HRI Properties did not respond to a request for comment for this story.
