STARS

Stars are a common symbol of capital cities. Some flags feature 2 stars (either separate or one atop the other) representing historic Frankfort and modern Frankfort. Others contain one star to show a unified Frankfort, bridging the divide of the river.

RIVER

The iconic S-bend river that cuts through downtown is shown a few different ways in the flags above, stretching from corner to corner or from side to side.

COLORS

The colors come from the current Frankfort flag (white, yellow, and blue) which themselves come the Kentucky state flag.

MISSION STATEMENT

We seek to develop and present for adoption an updated flag for the city of Frankfort, Kentucky. To encourage broad community use, we seek to give the public options which are well designed, distinctive, and representative of the community.

ZERO TAX DOLLARS

This initiative is utilizing ZERO taxpayer dollars. We are citizen-led and not part of the city or county governments. We are fortunate to be partnered with the non-profit Capital City Museum board of directors. As our sponsor they are acting as our fiduciary partner. All donations are tax deductible. Any donated money not spent directly on the Frankfort Flag Initiative will automatically revert to the Capital City Museum fund. Please help us cover the costs of getting the word out and producing the first run of flags.
