| As part of the observation, artists made these portraits of women on Plaza Bolivar. |
Today, International Women's Day, saw a protest march down Ave. Septima, art and a demonstration on Plaza Bolivar, and lots of flower all over.
 |
| 'Women who organize no longer iron clothes.' |
 |
| A couple juggles on Plaza Bolivar. |
 |
| The only portrait I recognized - Policarpa, the revolutionary heroine who is also on the 10,000 peso bill. |
 |
| 'Peace without women won't work!' Over the past couple of days there's been talk about the paucity of women participating in the government-FARC guerrilla peace talks in Cuba. |
 |
| 'Women, gender and equity.' |
 |
| Vending flowers on Carrera Decima. |
 |
| A woman sits on Avenida Jimenez holding some fake flowers, apparently for sale. |
 |
| Cleaning up the flower market at Paloquemao. The flowers stayed out until noon - much later than normal. |

weird comma placement on the no more ironing sign, no?
Hi Amanda,
Spanish often does use extra, unneeded commas. However, in this case I think you're seeing the accent mark on the word 'más'.

International Women's Day ??????
What about Global Men's Day.
good call! :)
on the accent comment, not on the ridiculous men's day comment!
