New Yorkers could not ask for better weather this weekend for the city's Puerto Rican Day Parade (and all of the satellite festivals and parties). If you're celebrating, you'll also want to keep an eye out for a poster from Jonathan Gardenhire. Here's what Jonathan has to say about No Te Olvides ("don't forget"):

For Art in Ad Places, I’ve reimagined the first Puerto Rican flag, “The Revolutionary Flag of Lares,” with black, red, and green, the colors of the Black Liberation flag. At a time when Puerto Rico is struggling due to economic neglect from the United States, on the weekend of New York City’s Puerto Rican Day parade, I consider remembrance and imagination as a piece of the solution for the people.
