Today, the City of Akron and Akron Bicentennial Committee are announcing the next steps in a process to create a new City of Akron logo. That process will be guided by a subcommittee under the Akron Bicentennial Commission and will last throughout the year with a goal of unveiling the next city logo at the Bicentennial’s closing ceremony on Dec. 6, 2025.

Today, the committee is issuing a Request for Proposals to seek an individual or firm who will be responsible for the creation of the next logo. They are also launching a survey to gather input from residents on what they would like to see incorporated in the new city logo. Learn more here: https://tinyurl.com/mryyrtxk
