Supporting Catholic Artists: Markets, Vendor Events, Culture Nights and More!

In today’s video, we’re talking about art events hosted by Catholic parishes that I have been fortunate to participate in over the last few years. I don’t do a lot of vendor events, but I think they can be a fruitful way to support artists and involve the community.
