Presenting...the 2026 Town T-Shirt!

The Town of Salisbury is pleased to announce that this year’s winning T-Shirt design concept was created by students of Salisbury Regional School (SRS). The design features a collage-style image incorporating the Town of Salisbury’s logo outline, filled with hand-drawn flowers contributed by students from every grade level. A single hand-drawn Purple Violet will appear on the front of the T-shirt, accompanied by the words “Town of Salisbury.” All flowers featured in the design are species commonly found throughout our region of New Brunswick. The Town would like to extend its sincere thanks to all SRS students who contributed to this collaborative project. We would also like to recognize Art Teacher, Caroline Humar-Barrett, for her creativity, leadership, and dedication in bringing together so many young artists to create this remarkable design.

Thank you to everyone who submitted an entry. We received dozens of designs that would have made excellent T-shirts. We would also like to congratulate our runners-up, Rebekah Power, Josée Cormier, and Mitl and Sarah Gaxiola, for their beautiful and creative submissions.
