Description

The mural on the back of Cardiff Chinese Christian Church, Llandaff Road, Cardiff. To the left of the mural is painted the following text: "This mural was finished on 1 August 1984 by…" and the names of the artists. This photograph was taken in October 2016 from Chapter Arts Centre car park. The mural was attributed by Ian Horsburgh to Charles Street Arts, who also painted a mural (now removed) of a daffodil on the side of the water tower visible from trains approaching Cardiff Central railway station.

In June 1977, Cardiff Community Concern started the Charles Street Carnival as a community groups' alternative celebration of the Queen's Silver Jubilee. The Carnival became an annual event and grew into a separate organisation - Charles Street Arts. Cardiff Community Concern was an alternative advice and information centre for young people. It was founded by Ian Horsburgh, an employee of the City of Cardiff Planning and Development Department. It was based in 58 Charles Street.
