Local artist Alan Pearsall has won the 375th Ipswich Anniversary Committee's logo contest. Alan created the Ipswich History Mural on the side of EBSCO's building at the beginning of the Riverwalk from downtown. Pearsall's logo will appear on T-shirts, tote-bags, coffee mugs, posters and banners promoting the town's 375th anniversary event being planned for next year.
The committee is still looking for volunteers to help in a number of areas. If interested, call Bonnie Hurd Smith at 978-741-1244 or email info@ipswichma375.org.
