The mural honours the memory and legacy of Annie Mae Pictou Aquash, a Mi'kmaw mother, and internationally accomplished educator and activist from Shubenacadie First Nation, who was murdered in South Dakota in 1975. Her memory and legacy are still held very dear to the Mi'kmaw Nation today.

This project was done in collaboration with Wonder'neath Art Society, led by Mi'kmaw community leader and activist Rebecca Cope, and lead artist Tayla Fern Paul, with the support ofDenise Pictou Maloney, Annie Mae's daughter.
