My friend Mary Kell, owner of the GoodBean Cafe in Jacksonville, Oregon, where I curate their monthly art exhibits, asked me to design a classic Oktoberfest Flag for the city to fly during this popular Autumn event. She wanted something similar to the Britt Flag that flies throughout the town during the Britt Music Festival and since this was for the town in general, different from the design used by the Frauhaus Brauhaus, a popular German restaurant in town. I found three traditional Bavarian/Oktoberfest designs online, modified them to comply with Jackonsville’s 4-color sign code restriction and added the headline in a classic German Black font to create a handsome, eye-catching flag for everyone to enjoy next year. ©2012 Hannah West Design
