In 2016, the Queer Resource Center at Portland State University{.body-link} celebrated its tenth anniversary as a resource for students, staff, and the community. In preparation for the event, I created this event logo as well as a marketing plan to go with it.

Each white symbol in the black bar is a different representation of ten.

• “10” is an Arabic numeral.
• “ten” is English.
• “X” is a Roman numeral.
• |||| |||| is tally marks.
• “עֶשֶׂר” is feminine Hebrew.
• “十” is Chinese and Japanese.
• “” is two hands representing the unary system.
• “दस” is Hindi.
• “Ιʹ” is a Greek numeral.
• “𓎆” is an Egyptian numeral.
• “↶” (roughly approximated) is American Sign Language.

Much like every symbol within the large Q represents different communities and identities within the larger queer community, so too does each symbol for ten represent different communities and the languages spoken by each.
