We're now beginning the 2nd major assignment of the semester: designing and illustrating a poster for International Women's Day.
Your IWD poster must include the following typographic elements:

"International Women's Day"
The International Women's Day logo and URL
The name of your subject woman
Her title or profession
A paragraph or so describing her career or accomplishments

Here's a list of subject women chosen by students in previous years.
