Make it
Use a basic drawing or slide app you already have. The festival can be imaginary and the poster does not need to be printed.
- 1
Choose the small thing your festival celebrates and give the event a title.
- 2
Open a blank page and choose two or three colors.
- 3
Add three invented attractions, such as the Crooked Toast Parade or Competitive Crumb Naming.
- 4
Draw or arrange one simple symbol, then make the festival title the largest text.
- 5
Move things until the poster feels readable and save your creation.
Short on energy? Make a title-only poster with one color.
A good place to stop: A title, one attraction, and a symbol are enough for a first poster.
Make it work for you: Zoom in, use large shapes, and skip precise alignment. Dictation can help with the wording.
Another route: Design an invitation to one tiny event rather than a whole festival.
