Some of our most creative young minds helped New West Record advertisers design their most memorable ad ever!
The New West Record, in conjunction with School District 40, arepleased to present this special section with ads created for local businesses by New Westminsterstudents.
That’s oneofthe reasonsour annual Design an Ad special supplement continues to be popular in New Westminster.
The New WestminsterRecord, local businesses and organizations, and the New Westminsterschool district, team up and ask city studentsto design newspaperads for the special section.
Every year,the students produceinsightful, creative, thoughtful– and often humorous –advertisements that highlight the strengths of their subjects and often carry compelling messages.
The businesses and groups get to choose which students’ advertisement they want to run in the section. Unfortunately, this year due to COVID-19, our photographercouldn’tvisit the schools so the teachers graciously sent someintousinstead! The ads and photos of studentsare put together by our team at the New Westminster Record and another DesignanAd section is complete
Iwould like to thankall of the students, teachers and participating advertisers who continue to make this annual project a real success!
