Tom Sawyer's friends have put many coats of white paint on this basement wall of bricks...but you can see the iron of the bricks seeping though over time.
Yes, these walls are in the basement of the Black Mountain Center for the Arts...which was once used for the jail.
There's more to this story!
But to complete the story I started last Monday about the murals on this building, I noticed the one on the stairway today, which is described in the plaque about all the murals.

Today's quote:
Our loving intentions can easily transform the space in which we live.

...if you take down walls, they can become bridges!
