SPOKANE, Wash. – Spokane officially has a new flag.
For months, the Spokane Flag Commission has been looking for new designs to represent the city.
Hundreds of submissions were received this fall, and the list was narrowed to 12 in April. Since then, people have had the opportunity to vote for their favorites via an online portal.
The new flag, designed by Derek Landers, is green for Spokane’s natural surroundings, the river that flows through the city, and the sun. The Salic word sp̓q̓n̓iʔ gives the city its name.
Do you like the new flag? Vote in the poll below.
