DescriptionGreen Party Seeking New Logo
The Los Angeles Times

Move over, sunflower; the Green Party's longtime symbol is facing retirement. The party launched a logo design contest Thursday to choose a new image to be splashed across posters, stickers, T-shirts and letterheads at its nominating convention set for June 23-28 in Milwaukee. "We want to get people inspired and invigorated about being Green," said Green Party fundraising director Kara Mullen. The Green Party platform advocates a multiparty system, social justice, environmental responsibility, nonviolence and diversity. Mullen is unsure how many entries the contest will attract, especially because of its fast-approaching deadline of April 25. But she hopes to pick a standardized logo that "reaches out to all cultures; something very simple." She would like the logo to help combat misperceptions about the Green Party "being these tree-hugger hippie types, and that's not the case at all," Mullen said. "Yes, we embrace those people, but we also embrace everyone else."
