Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts reveals new license plate design

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – Gov. Pete Ricketts and First lady Susanne Shore revealed the new general issue Nebraska license plate.

The license plate was designed to pay homage to the “Genius of Creative Energy” mosaic and other mosaics in the State Capitol.

“I want to thank the countless Nebraskans who have come to us with ideas and feedback over the years,” Shore said.  “Ultimately, we found a design that every Nebraskan can relate to.  I especially want to thank Drew for unleashing his creative genius to depict our state’s own.”

Drew Davies, a Nebraska-based brand and design consultant, created the new plates.

“I’m deeply honored to have the opportunity to design a license plate celebrating the creative energy of all Nebraskans,” Davies said.

Nebraska law requires a new license plate be designed and implemented every six years.

Distribution of the plates will begin in January 2023, according to Ricketts’ office.
