Nelson Mandela mural in Toxteth nearing completion ahead of family visit

Nelson Mandela John Culshaw Toxteth

A new mural of Nelson Mandela is nearing completion in Toxteth ahead of the visit of his daughter.

A mural of Nelson Mandela was commissioned by local charity Mandela8 to conserve and widely share existing historical and contemporary heritage of the late South African leader. The mural is painted on the Kuumba Imani Millennium Centre at the beginning of Princes Avenue in Toxteth.

The completion of the new mural will come ahead of the opening of the new Nelson Mandela memorial in Princes Park this July. Mr Mandela's daughter Dr Maki Mandela and his granddaughter Tukwini Mandela will cut the ribbon on the memorial dedicated to the iconic leader as part of a week-long visit.
