A vibrant teal-colored poster advertises a call for feminists to join the board of directors at St. John's STatus of Women Council and Women's Centre.

The large, bold text "Feminists Wanted!" is set in a sans-serif font against a light beige rectangle. Below this headline, smaller text outlines the opportunity: "Join our Board of Directors and help us strategize toward a more equitable future!"

At the top right corner, a purple symbol within a circle, along with the text "ST. JOHN'S WOMEN'S CENTRE", is displayed. At the bottom of the poster, another purple symbol within a circle and the words "ST. JOHN'S STATUS OF WOMEN COUNCIL" appear. The background is a striking teal, with radiating white lines reminiscent of sunbursts echoing outward from the center. These graphic elements add visual interest and dynamism.

A cozy space with a cardboard cut out fireplace in the middle with two stockings, a Christmas tree to the right, and on the left a arm chair with a nice flowered throw over it. It just looks super homey and inviting.
