Peter Tosh Museum Coming Soon!
A museum honouring the life and work of Peter Tosh is currently scheduled to be opened in Kingston this summer.
Tosh was a founding member of the world renowned reggae group, the Wailers which also included Bob Marley and Bunny Wailer.
He was shot and killed in his home in 1987.
According to petertosh.com, when the Peter Tosh Museum opens, Jamaicans and visitors from around the world will be able to see a collection of fascinating Tosh memorabilia and artifacts that have intrigued and mesmerized reggae lovers for decades, including Tosh’s famous M16 guitar and his beloved unicycle that became one of his favorite means of transportation. Some of the treasures will be displayed to the public for the first time.
Visitors will be able to relive aspects of the non-conformist, futuristic and abundantly creative Tosh experience through sizzling audio and video recordings featuring the superstar. Exclusive merchandise will also be available for sale at the museum.
“This is an important turning point in the preservation and advancement of my father’s legacy, and the museum will allow my father’s message of equal rights and justice to be heard by generations, both young and old,” Niambe McIntosh, daughter of the Grammy winner and administrator of the Peter Tosh Estate said.
The museum will be located at newly re – named Peter Tosh Square at the The Pulse Centre on Trafalgar Road.
