Legacy
Legacy, a mural by Erica Chisolm, honors Patsy Jo Hilliard, the first Black female mayor of East Point, GA, elected in 1993. Chisolm uses Ghanaian Adinkra symbols throughout the work, including the Aya (fern), which stands for endurance and resourcefulness. The portrait carries the mayor’s motto, “Be True To Thyself,” and celebrates authenticity and bravery. It is a reminder to stay grounded in your values while drawing strength from the past to build the future.
