Cardiff Women's Festival poster is a 1984 by U-Print Collective, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This poster is mostly black with bright pink text and shapes. The words "Cardiff Women’s Festival" stand out in big, bold letters, with a female symbol below. Pink lines and dots form a starburst around the text, making it look energetic. The poster lists events like workshops and films, all written in small, neat handwriting. The dates are in the top corner, and the design feels simple but striking. If you like this bold, text-heavy style, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
The poster features black, pink, and white colors and was created for the Cardiff Women's Festival in 1984 by the U-Print Collective. It depicts a circle of hands joining together and includes program information for a five-day event.
