The image on this poster (which will also be used on the evening's program) is a pen drawing by artist Matthew Alderman of Our Lady of Guadalupe.  The artist has graciously allowed me to use this illustration for our event.  More information about Mr. Alderman's work and links to more of his drawings, architecture, and design may be found HERE.
