Today’s featured member, Jackson Ridl, director of Seattle City Flag, said Seattle City Flag is a 501(c)(3) that works to bring inclusive public art to Seattle through civic design. The organization has a vision where everyone can feel dignity and be seen by our civic art. The contemporary Seattle city flag is a goodwill symbol to build connection and community for all those who call Seattle home.What does your Chamber membership mean to you and your company?
I joined the Chamber to amplify my organization’s voice and build a coalition with important regional stakeholders. I view the Chamber as a business partner to help me grow, mature, and provide useful context when navigating the regional nonprofit and business ecosystem. To achieve our vision, we know it is critical to build connections and partnerships with as many community members as possible. The Seattle Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce was a clear step in amplifying our mission of building an inclusive public symbol for Seattle.
Are there partnerships you are/your company is currently looking for?
We are looking to generate grassroots momentum to contemporize Seattle’s City Flag. This project is about connecting us as citizens. To do this, we’d love to share our art with you. If you are a business or nonprofit in the Seattle metro area that would be interested in displaying a contemporary flag, we will send you one for free. Flags are 2 feet by 3 feet. Please reach out to Director@SeattleCityFlag.org to be sent a free contemporary city flag.
