The Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Art Museum consist of two buildings flanking the main entrance into St Georges Park. In the foyer of the right hand building the figure of Thobeka welcomes visitors to the gallery. Thobeka is a work of art by artist Willie Bester and consist of welded recycled metal. She was purchased by the museum in 2002 and has been on permanent display in the foyer.
