Vicksburg Bicentennial logo voting now open

The bicentennial planning has opened voting for the Vicksburg Bicentennial official logo. You can vote for your favorite design online.

Voting will be open Tuesday, Nov. 15 and will close Wednesday, Nov.r 30. Plans are to announce the official logo at Vicksburg Partnership Annual Meeting in late January.

Vicksburg was incorporated on Jan. 29, 1825 and the logo contest is part of the lead into Vicksburg’s Bicentennial Celebration to commemorate the city’s 200th birthday. The Vicksburg 200 Committee announced its first opportunity for community involvement in the design of the commemoration logo at the August 10, 2022, press conference. Artists submitted designs that had to include the word Vicksburg, the word Mississippi, and the number 200 and/or the word Bicentennial.
