WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
recognize the members of Austin High School's Ballet Folklórico | ||
on the occasion of the program's 15th rebirth anniversary, which | ||
is being celebrated at its Gran Show de Primavera on May 3, | ||
2019; and | ||
WHEREAS, Ballet Folklórico is a for-credit, self-funded | ||
program and working dance company at Austin High School; the | ||
group produces about 20 shows during the school year, and the | ||
dancers close out each year with the annual Gran Show de | ||
Primavera; and | ||
WHEREAS, This year is Ballet Folklórico's 15th anniversary | ||
of the program's rebirth because the company lost sponsorship in | ||
the 1990s; it was reorganized by Maura Patricia Masters, who was | ||
hired in 2003 and continues to direct the program today; and | ||
WHEREAS, Ballet Folklórico succeeds through the efforts of | ||
every dancer and the guidance of chief instructor and | ||
choreographer Victoria Carr; a student officer corps helps lead | ||
the group and assists in every aspect of the organization, from | ||
instruction to purchasing costumes and other items; and | ||
WHEREAS, The talented dancers of Ballet Folklórico perform | ||
throughout the greater Austin community and compete at events | ||
around the state; their 2019 Gran Show de Primavera, Nuestra | ||
Historia, will celebrate both the history of the dance company | ||
and the history of Mexico; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th | ||
Legislature, hereby commend all associated with Ballet | ||
Folklórico at Austin High School for promoting cultural and | ||
performing arts in their community and extend to them best wishes | ||
for a memorable 15th anniversary Gran Show de Primavera; and, be | ||
it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for the | ||
dance company as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. | ||
Watson | ||
