Two images of the UU Shared Values, in an atom form and in a flower form, are now available for Unitarian Universalist congregations to use. We are grateful to the artist, Tanya Webster, for creating these graphics for use within our faith tradition.
Guidelines for Use and Sharing
The Shared Values images are licensed to the UUA and its affiliates for our use. No special permission is needed for Unitarian Universalists to distribute the images in a Unitarian Universalist context (such as digital platforms or a print product pertaining to the programs and ministries of a congregation).
Written permission from the artist is required for use of the graphic outside of a Unitarian Universalist context (such as for profit or fundraising for an individual or for a non-Unitarian Universalist group). Written permission is also required before substantively altering the designs of either image.
In such cases, permission requests should be sent to outlook@uua.org.
Include an Image Description
Plain text image descriptions (or alt text) are necessary for people who cannot see. Include a description, either as the “alt” text attribute or as a separate caption.

Sample Image Description
A chalice with the word Love over the flame, surrounded by three interlocking and elliptical orbits of color resembling the stylized motion of subatomic particles. As the orbits intersect each other, the colors shift from dark pink to red, aqua to dark blue, and goldenrod to bright green. Within the open spaces formed by each interlocking orbit are the six UU shared values in a modern font: Clockwise: Transformation (aqua), Equity (bright green), Pluralism (red), Interdependence (dark blue), Justice (goldenrod), and Generosity (dark pink).
