The Back Lot & Memorial Garden

Step out back and you’ll find one of Cardinal & Clover’s most meaningful spaces — a creative mix of art, reflection, and community. From the colorful murals and handcrafted details to Clarence, our ever-stylish selfie mannequin who’s become a bit of a local celebrity, the space invites joy and connection. 

Our Memorial Garden, dedicated to David R. Burkey, is a peaceful corner created for remembrance and renewal. Visitors are encouraged to sit, read, pray, or simply breathe — and to leave a handwritten note to someone they love and miss. It’s a beautiful reminder that while our collaborative celebrates life, creativity, and laughter, it’s also a place where hearts can heal and memories live on.
