The mural finished earlier this year to identify the community of Leslieville will be dedicated Thursday at 3 p.m.at Queen Street East and Jones Avenue. The mural is the work of graffiti artist Jabari “Elicser” Elliott. It shows a man sitting at rest under a tree. It contains the name Leslieville in a similar way to that seen on the original mural, shown in the photo two down in this post. The maple tree in the scene is intended to recall poet Alexander Muir, author of The Maple Leaf Forever, who was featured in the original mural.
