2019 Cinco de Mayo Commemorative Button
About the Button Artist
Ernesto Ybarra was born and raised on the West Side and lived in the Torre de San Miguel apartments.
Although he currently lives in Seattle, his heart will always be with the West Side of Saint Paul. He dedicates this piece to the youth of the West Side, especially his son and daughter whom he refers to as his Sun and Moon. As a self taught artist, Ernesto has developed his distinctly vibrant style over the past 18 years.
Natural inspiration for his art includes his Mexican - American culture stating, "there are no rules of color in Mexico".
Our Streets = Our Stories
This project is an initiative of the WestSide Community Organization (WSCO) and generously funded through Council Member Noeckers office, Mardag and F.R. Bigelow foundations to activate vibrant, thriving West Side commercial corridors, through the cultivation and realization of community vision. This community chosen artwork will be celebrated and infused throughout the District del Sol Commercial Corridor of the West Side.
The 2019 Cinco de Mayo West Side - Saint Paul commemorative buttons are now available for purchase throughout the Westside and in the Saint Paul Festival & Heritage Foundation's office at 429 Landmark Center.
