"Carmelin Castro Ítom Usím Children's Park" (revisited)

The park is in the City of South Tucson along the Julian Wash beginning at S. 10th Ave. & W. 40th St.  It extends from S. 10th Ave. to S. 12th Ave.  It's a great place to take the kids.  It has a nice playground and plenty of places for the family to have a picnic or just sit and relax.

Images from the park were originally posted to the Tucson Murals Project on 12/02/2011.  There's so much more to add that I've decided to start over and show all of the murals in the park. Here are the photos I took on July 20, 2017:

Unfortunately, I couldn't find the names of any of the artists.

I also tried to find a translation of Ítom Usím.  I couldn't find any matches in Yaqui, Pima or O'odham.  It might be a proper name.
