Thank you for voting for your favorite design in the 2026 T-Shirt Contest. The winning design will be sold at our merchandise stands during the Iowa State Fair, August 13-23.
For this year’s contest, as in the past, the Blue Ribbon Foundation allowed the use of any and all forms of art, from hand-drawn ideas to AI-generated pictures. We appreciate all the feedback we received during this year's contest and will review our rules prior to 2027.
If you can’t wait until August, you can purchase any of the top 5 T-Shirts online now. The store is open through Friday, May 29. All orders will be shipped June 15.
Your purchase supports the Blue Ribbon Foundation’s mission of renovating the historic Iowa State Fairgrounds. Thank you!
