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 teal-colored background features a white box containing text. The heading, "We are seeking skills in, below this, a bulleted list highlights three specific skill areas: "Facilities management," "Legal and privacy," and "Fund development." Following this bulleted list is a line containing the phrase, "Maybe you have other skills?" Finally, the text "Apply! You could be just what we need." is positioned below the skill list. The lower portion of the box displays a logo and the text "ST. JOHN'S STATUS OF WOMEN COUNCIL" in a sans-serif font. IMAGE ID: A teal-colored informational graphic outlines the responsibilities of being a member of a Board of Directors. The text, formatted in a bulleted list, details five key aspects: Sign up: Joining the organization as a member. Prepared participation: Attending meetings and being prepared to participate in discussions. Active listening and collaboration: Listening to others' views, expressing one's own, identifying common ground, and considering compromise. Committee involvement: Contributing to the board's work by participating in at least one committee. Community representation: Acting as an ambassador for the organization, highlighting its accomplishments. Below the five points is a section titled "Want to learn more and apply?", prompting those interested to submit questions, resumes, and cover letters (or videos) to a specific email address (board@sjwomenscentre.ca). A logo of St. John's Status of Women Council is placed at the bottom of the graphic.

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.
