Saturday, January 26th from 5-8pm ~ Family Mass & our Student Art Show Gallery.
Our annual art show will be presented after the 5pm Mass on 1/26/19. Students should wear their uniform to Mass. Families are then invited to come across to the Parish Center to enjoy the art show along with a selection of snacks and appetizers. Enjoy a cozy cup of cocoa from our hot cocoa bar while touring the "gallery". The art show theme this year is in keeping with our Laudato Si initiatives. Students are working hard and creatively to design and produce artistic pieces that will evoke taking care of our environment through recycling. Every student, PreK thru 8th grade, will have a piece of artwork on display for our community to enjoy.

Your RSVP helps us be sure we have enough food for this family event, so thanks in advance!
