In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson issued a presidential proclamation establishing the first national Flag Day observance, honoring the adoption of the American flag by the Continental Congress on June 14, 1777.

At the time, Americans flew a 48-star flag, reflecting the addition of New Mexico and Arizona as states in 1912. The 48-star flag remained the nation’s official flag for 47 years—longer than any other version in U.S. history—until Alaska and Hawaii became states.

This Flag Day, we celebrate the history of the Stars and Stripes and the generations of Americans who have found meaning and inspiration in our nation’s flag.

Image: Created by A. Buccini, this banner was presented to President Wilson by an Italian artist in New York during one of the President's trips there during the war. President Wilson highly valued the banner and placed it above his bed in the White House and in his S Street home. Woodrow Wilson House Collection. 1918.

Still taking this in.

What stays with us is not just the evening, but the conversations, how people connected with the piece, paused, asked, and shared their own stories.

At Fashioning Power, Fashioning Peace, being part of a room with voices from across the world was a reminder of what design can do when it is created with intention.

For us at House Of Alkara , this was never just about presenting a piece.

It was about representing a way of thinking where art, culture, and craft come together quietly, yet meaningfully.

Grateful for the space, and for how the work was received.
