Events - Month View

With more and more cities around the US and the world adopting flags, this IAM is the perfect place for those interested in the flags and designs, as well as the process surrounding the creation and adoption of the flags, and the groups and individuals leading flag-adoption efforts. We discuss current or newly-adopted city flags, those in need of change, and invite those working directly with cities on flag projects to share their experiences. Bimonthly.

The Flag Design Forum allows Flag Creators the opportunity to present their flag ideas to a dedicated and knowledgeable group of Flag Enthusiasts. It takes place on the first Saturday of each month at 3:00 PM (US Eastern Time).

Whether you need input on the early stages of your flag creation journey or feedback on your advanced Flag Promotion Pitch, the Forum brings Flag Creators and Flag Evaluators together in a supportive and knowledgeable environment for feedback and live editing.

On some months, we will also feature flag design case studies. During these sessions, the designer of a successfully adopted flag will present the design development of the flag to inspire and inform attendees.

Interested in presenting or would like to assist with running the meetings? Please contact Brian Cham at briancham1994@gmail.com.

There is considerable popular interest in flags of the Revolutionary War. However, the historical basis for many of those flags is very tenuous, and existing published references to them are often inaccurate. This IAM focuses on investigating and documenting the history and context of colonial and Revolutionary War flags, and on ways that NAVA can disseminate this information to the vexillological community and the public. 90 minutes.

Monthly meeting of NAVA‘s executive board. 8 PM E / 5 PM P. Open to all members.

Dear Colleague, Thanks again for your interest in the NAVA Publications Indexing Project. This is our initial meeting. Please let us know if you can attend this meeting, which we expect to run 60 – 90 minutes, by replying to this message. We will record the meeting for those who cannot attend. The meeting will be an opportunity to meet each other, review the project’s scope and goals, observe the indexing of one publication, and answer questions. Before the meeting concludes you will have an opportunity to choose a tranche of issues to index. To prepare for the meeting, please create an account on Zotero, the program we will use to power the project. Contact me for the Zotero Instructions PDF. It would be helpful if you can please do the Zotero steps a few days before the meeting. We look forward to working with you. This project will help unlock the rich store of knowledge and perspectives of NAVA publications, all of which are digitally preserved but not now easily accessible. Once completed, it will make NAVA an exemplar for other vexillological associations. Best regards, Annie Platoff
