Advent and Holy Family Art

Hi, St. Mary's,

Earlier today, I read a great article by Dr. Henry Zonio about the lack of representation in popular depictions of the Holy Family (especially in children's materials) and how including non-white representations of Jesus' family is an important way of welcoming everyone into Advent. I remembered some art I had shared last year and thought I would pass it along to you again.
