The posters and banners can be downloaded from the ISKCON 50 website by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iskcon50.org\/downloads\">clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have one general poster about the 50th, and seven other posters \u2013 one for each of the seven purposes of ISKCON,\u201d said Anuttama Das, GBC Minister for Communications who is part of the International Executive Committee for the 50th Anniversary. \u201cOne of the aims of the 50th Anniversary is to educate the general public about ISKCON. The posters depicting the seven purposes will attempt to do that with attractive imagery and relevant information.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The posters were designed by Paramsiddhi Devi Dasi from ISKCON Ahmedabad with storyboards and visualisation provided by the ISKCON 50 Global Office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is important that all temples around the world start to publicise the 50th anniversary in a structured manner,\u201d said Romapada Das, International Coordinator for the 50th Anniversary. \u201cAs part of our public profiling, every temple should start displaying these posters in their premises so that every visitor knows that it is our 50th anniversary year, and understands what ISKCON stands for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe entire experience of designing these posters was an incredible journey,\u201d described Paramsiddhi Devi Dasi. \u201cWe had to capture the mood of Prabhupada in each poster, and include images that were relevant to each of the seven purposes of ISKCON. We request all of you to please use these posters to inform your congregation, visitors and other public about ISKCON and its 50th anniversary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Temples can simply download the posters from the downloads section of the ISKCON 50 website and print them locally. The Global Office will also be making printed copies available at the special 50th anniversary booth at the ISKCON Leadership Sangha in Mayapur from 24th February to 2nd March 2016. Those who wish to get hard copies can pick them up from the booth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough these posters, I hope that people around the world will understand what Prabhupada envisioned for ISKCON, and start inquiring more to learn about our society\u2019s spectacular achievements in the last fifty years,\u201d concluded Romapada Das. \u201cThe 50th is a unique opportunity for us to glorify Prabhupada and to spread the sankirtana movement. Put up these posters so that everyone who comes to your temple starts to \u2018think 50 and act 50\u2019!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>ISKCON centres are requested to write to Romapada Das,  International Coordinator, 50th anniversary at romapada@iskcon50.org if  they need any further information or support about the 50th anniversary.<\/p>\n<p>THINK 50!
