Dia de la Bandera on Jardin Libertad

February 24 is Flag Day in Mexico. Preparing for the festivities, these artists are painting a portrait of the flag on a big billboard for use the rest of that day in front of the city hall. Suitable ceremonies followed in the evening. The next day the billboard was gone. Many things like this are beautifully hand-made for short term use.
