Mural characters come to life!

This November, step inside the colourful world of Wandsworth artist Ruki Chuki as the beloved mural at our west entrance comes to life!

To celebrate one year since Ruki’s vibrant mural first transformed our walls, we’re unveiling a brand-new community trail of six life-sized sculptural totems throughout the centre, each inspired by the mural’s playful characters and the spirit of our local community.

Discover the Tales of Wandsworth community trail

From Monday 10th November, embark on the all-new totem trail throughout Southside and meet six unique characters who are all bold, bright, and bursting with personality!

Each totem tells a story of creativity, love, and connection, celebrating the people who make Wandsworth such a special place to live, work, and visit.

Created in Ruki Chuki’s distinctive style, every sculpture includes a short narrative about the inspiration behind it — inviting visitors of all ages to pause, reflect, and celebrate the diversity that defines our community.
