Description
Tour participants admire the Reggae Lane Mural designed by visual artist Adrian Hayles. This mural was inspired by ideas contributed by dozens of residents, reggae enthusiasts and musicians. Celebrating the rich local music history of the community, the mural pays homage to the musicians that paved the way, featuring legendary Little Jamaica resident artists: Leroy Sibbles, Jay Douglas, Jackie Mittoo (and more), as well as key figures such as Haile Selassie, Bob Marley and the Skatalites.
