Twenty potential new Utah state flags are now on display at the Utah Capitol. Utahns have two more weeks to submit their thoughts on which of the 20 flags should fly over Utah in the future.
Utahns have through Oct. 5 to submit their thoughts on which of the 20 flags should fly over the Utah Capitol in the future.
“I just want to say how thankful we all are to the many Utahns who took the time to think about what symbols and what colors remind them of this great state,” Henderson said. “In the process, we’ve animated an ongoing conversation about what unites us, which is something really special these days.” “This is so wonderful to see this — these wonderful kids,” Handy said. “And that was kind of always our vision, that the children of Utah would get involved in this and embrace something new.”
Skyline High School senior Benjamin Benson, who is 17 years old and serving on the Millcreek Youth Council, designed a blue flag with a sego lily and an eight-pointed star in the center. “They did want it to be something that would show sovereignty, not, you know, say there was a symbol like a circle or something. They didn’t want one symbol to represent all of them because they are separate,” Talahaftewa explained.
