This is this year's Coconut Grove Arts Festival poster art. A piece by world famous artist, Romero Britto. It was unveiled last night at an invitation only party at the Sonesta Bayfront Hotel.
As usual, the unveiling was broadcast live on NBC6, reporter Roxanne Vargas, did the honors, so you probably saw the beautiful work of art already. The moment of the actual unveiling was aired on live tv.

The event was catered with an open bar and lots of food. The ocean breezes swept through the ballroom, from the pool and cabanas. It was an amazing evening.
The Coconut Grove Arts Festival is February 16 through 18 this year in the Center of Coconut Grove. Britto had done one of the previous posters which was one of the best sellers. This one in 2007. So he was chosen to do the poster to celebrate 50 years of the festival this year.
