The Town of Rosemère has announced the upcoming release of its 2026 municipal calendar, a free publication that combines civic information with artwork created by local residents. The calendar will be available to the public starting December 18 at several municipal service points across the town, according to a notice issued by municipal authorities.
Residents will be able to pick up the calendar at Town Hall, the H.J. Hemens Public Library, the Memorial Community Centre, the Recreation Department, and the Public Works Department. In addition to printed copies, an electronic version will be posted on the town’s official website, where it can be viewed online or downloaded in PDF format
This year’s edition takes the form of a collective work, created through a public contest held earlier in the year. The theme of the contest was “Monarchs and other Rosemère pollinators,” and residents were invited to submit photographs and artworks inspired by pollinating species found in the municipality. Fourteen selected images were chosen to illustrate the calendar.
Mayor Marie Elaine Pitre acknowledged the strong response from the community, noting in a statement that many submissions were received and that the selection process was challenging due to the quality of the entries. She highlighted the role of monarch butterflies and other pollinators in preserving biodiversity and thanked participants for contributing their creative work to the project
Beyond its artistic component, the calendar serves a practical purpose, providing residents with an overview of municipal activities, important dates, and community events throughout the year. Municipal officials described it as a planning tool that also reflects Rosemère’s commitment to citizen participation and environmental awareness.
To ensure accessibility, the town has indicated that residents with mobility issues who are unable to visit one of the distribution points may request that a copy be mailed to them. Requests can be made by contacting the municipal communications department by email.
The Town of Rosemère stated that the calendar is intended to be both informative and representative of the community, highlighting local talent while drawing attention to environmental themes relevant to the region.
