FAMILY CRAFT ACTIVITY | Let Your Flag Fly High!

Learn about the history and meaning of flags, then design your own custom flag.

Flags are more than pieces of fabric – they are visual expressions of the people, places, values, and aspirations that shape shared identity. Come learn about flags and then design your own! This event accompanies "Voices & Votes: Democracy in America," a Smithsonian exhibition that explores the action, reaction, vision, and revision that democracy demands as Americans continue to question how to shape our country. "Voices & Votes: Democracy in America" is made possible in Utah by Utah Humanities and local venues around the state. Voices & Votes is part of Museum on Main Street, a collaboration between the Smithsonian Institution and State Humanities Councils nationwide. It is based on an exhibition by the National Museum of American History. Support for Museum on Main Street has been provided by the United States Congress. Visit the exhibition in Vernal from August 15 to October 17, 2026 to learn how Utah connects to this national story through local companion exhibits and public programming.
