Description
Screenprinted black and white poster, "Womans Art & Theatre" at the top with small text listing events on days from Friday 27th March to Sunday 29th March "At The Factory". Above the text is an illustration of two faces.
This poster was made by Paddington Printshop, a community graphic design and print workshop in West London, co-founded by John Phillips and Pippa Smith. Between 1975-1991, the centre printed over 400 designs for left-wing community organisations. These publicised local political campaigns such as housing rights and food co-ops, to social gatherings including play days, gardening clubs, gigs and festivals. Their do-it-yourself style was part of the proto-punk ethos.
