KANSAS FLAG HISTORY AND MEANING

The Kansas state flag was designed by Hazel Avery and was first displayed during a parade in the city of Lincoln. This design was officially adopted by the state in 1927. In 1961, the flag was changed to have the state’s name added to the bottom, and that design is still used today.

The flag features Kansas’ state seal, with many symbols representing pioneer life, such as a plowed field, oxen, and wagons. The Latin words within the seal translate to the state’s motto: “To the stars through difficulties.” Below the motto are 34 stars representing Kansas as the 34th state admitted to the Union. Above the seal is a sunflower representing the state’s nickname and the state flower.
