The municipal flag of Columbia, Missouri is white with a square blue design
resembling a view of four seated figures with outstretched arms as seen from above.
In addition to being the
seat of Columbia College of Missouri, the city of Columbia is also the home and
main campus of the very much larger University of Missouri.

The City of Columbia has no official flag, but the City flies unofficial flag
based on its logo. Here is what I received from the City:
"The City of
Columbia, Missouri does not have an official flag. We do have a symbol or logo
that we use on various printed materials. The logo has been used as a flag, but
it is not something that has an "adoption date, official description and
designer, etc." I am including information about the logo itself which is based
on original artwork.
About the artwork:
City
employees and citizens exist in an interwoven relationship. As a representation
of this cooperative working bond, the distinctive City of Columbia logo depicts
people joined together in an unending circle of community service. A solid
version of the logo appears on city-owned vehicles, uniforms and correspondence
as a reminder of this cooperative goal.
At this time, I do not have the
name of the original artist and any official "adoption" date. We have used it so
long, it will take search of our archives to find that information.
