Design: Algonquin artist Frank Polson presents a stunning full moon behind a leafless tree. To the left, a man contemplates the Red Road, his pipe ready to send prayers to the Great Spirit. His feathered headdress signifies four achievements, and his flowing hair symbolizes his connection to the sacred web of life. The vibrant colors within his silhouette reflect the universal life force, a signature element of Anishinaabe art.

For Indigenous peoples, feathers are highly honored symbols, representing deep spiritual significance. The ceremonial pipe holds prayers, releasing them through smoke to connect with the Great Spirit during sacred ceremonies.
