Display

[edit]

To best preserve the symbolism of the Keystone Flag when displayed, it is recommended to observe the following:

  • When affixed to a pole, the top of the Keystone should be oriented closest to the top of the pole.
Proper vertical and horizontal display of the Keystone Flag
  • When displayed or depicted horizontally (whether draped, hanging, flying in a breeze, or otherwise), green should appear to the observer’s left and blue should appear to the observer's right, wherever feasible.
  • Displaying the flag vertically without a flagpole (draped, hanging, or otherwise) is discouraged, but when deemed appropriate or necessary:
    • the hoist should appear above the flag, with the top of the Keystone oriented away from the center of the display, as would appear a stone in an arch;
    • if there is no clear center of display, the top of the Keystone should face away from the nearest portal (doorway, window, passageway, etc);
    • if no center or portal can be determined or the flag is the center of display, the front of the flag should be visible to the most observers;
    • if it will be observed from multiple sides, the top of the keystone should orient to the north or the east (as would the Union of the Flag of the United States).
  • If displayed in conjunction with the flag of the United States, where following the above would cause a violation United States Flag Code, accommodations are permissible, but should be made as minimally as able.
