Design: Algonquin artist Frank Polson depicts a full moon behind an autumn tree with few leaves left, while a woman kneels in prayer, offering tobacco smoke. The signature vivid colors within her silhouette symbolize the universal life force connecting all beings. The flowing hair represents her bond to the sacred web of life.

Did you know… Tobacco is a key medicine in Anishinaabe tradition, used in ceremonies and prayers as a conduit to communicate with the spirit world. Alongside tobacco, cedar, sage, and sweetgrass are also important spiritual medicines. Anishinaabe, meaning "the good beings" or "original person," refers to the Algonquian tribes, each with its own distinct culture, leadership, and identity.
