Description
Members of the public have submitted nearly 5,000 designs to the state flag commission…

The commission – made up of 21 artists, educators, historians and Illinois fans – has whittled the pool down to their top *10* picks.
WBEZ’s Mawa Iqbal sat down with commissioner Will Stephens to learn more.
