Posters & Flyers

The purpose:

The main function of a poster is to capture a moving audience with a message. When designing a poster, plan its design carefully. You will have a short amount of time to attract and hold your readers attention. Think about the one aspect of the information that must convey the message and plan your design around that.

The Main Elements of Poster Design

• Have type large enough to be viewed to 3-5 times your format width.

• Have a simple and clear layout so your reader knows where to find the information.

• Include all important information such as date, time, location, contact name and telephone number.

• Have dominate elements such as a headline or image that will quickly catch your reader’s eye.

• Have the most important message emphasized by size, color, or value.

• Have art that is related to the message.

• Have the type and imagery arranged in a logical, functional sequence.

• Have bold, intense colors to enhance your message so that it can be easily seen from a distance.

MAGAZINE

What is Sisters Magazine?

Sisters Magazine is a vehicle to show ourselves and the world the major accomplishments and strides we are taking as an organization. We place emphasis on the four foci are the foundation of our mission. We share our knowledge on issues that are relevant to the Black woman and based in facts. Sisters Magazine is where we celebrate. We celebrate ourselves, our affiliates, our sections, and, of course, NCNW as a whole.

What is inside?

While the magazine comes out seasonally which usually coincides with an epic move forward that we are either leading or involved with, it may be themed around one of the four foci. We make it a point that all articles fall directly under the umbrellla of the four foci. Feature articles may change as we ripen the times and make our voices known. There are certain columns or updates that will be in every magazine. Not all we will be in every edition as we shift our focus, but here is a partial listing.
