Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe Posada Celebration & Fundraiser

From the Norwood Tenant Association on N and 14th Street, NW

We are getting ready for our cultural celebration dedicated to La Virgen de Guadalupe. The posada will take place on Saturday, December 12 from 6:00-9:00pm at the National City Christian Church (5 Thomas Cir NW) in Washington DC. We will commemorate the Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe and will give thanks for the community support we have received.

An exhibit of traditional Mayan sawdust paintings in the image of the virgin will be on display. A posada puppet show will tell the story of the Norwood Tenant Association. Musical performances will include the Grupo Raíbales, from the Guatemalan highlands, and Son Jarocho from México. Reception to follow. Tickets are $10 per person. Free for children less than 12 years of age. Proceeds from the event will be used toward the purchase of the Norwood apartment building as affordable housing.

Parking available at the Washington Plaza Hotel across from the event. Bring this announcement and pay $7 for parking.

We want to share this event with all of the community so please send this announcement to your family, friends, colleagues and networks.
