Official 2009 Charro Days Fiesta Poster Unveiling
72nd Annual Charro Days Poster Unveiled in Downtown Brownsville event headquarters. Artist Don Breeden. The poster, depicting Longoria Elementary School students dancing, drew applause as its artist, Don Breeden, and representatives from sponsors Keppel AmFELS, revealed it to the crowd. The dance portrayed, “La Danza de los Conceros”, is a modern, mystic, folk dance of Central Mexico based on the cultural legacy of the “Aztecs.”
Breeden has illustrated 10 of the 11 posters in the Charro Days poster series.
In 1991, the Brownsville Convention and Visitors Bureau, Inc. (BCVB) began the tradition of creating a Charro Days poster to commemorate the event. In 2004, Charro Days, Inc. partnered with the BCVB, and this year, Keppel AmFELS joined as the sponsor of the poster.
