ON THE BOOKSHELF | Sacred Material: The Art of the Tapestries of the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels
John Nava is one of Ventura County’s greatest living fine artists — and in a community that boasts tremendous talent across the spectrum, that’s saying something. The realist painter is known for depicting contemporary settings and subjects in the style of the Old Masters, and his art has been shown around the world, with several public works projects to his name, as well as pieces in the collections of such prestigious institutions as the National Museum of American Art in Washington, D.C., and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Hawaii. His greatest claim to fame, however, hangs in the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles City Hall Honors “La Virgen de Guadelupe, Dios Inantzin,” on its Fifteenth Year – An interview with Playwright Evelina Fernandez
On Wednesday, November 29, 2017, The Los Angeles City Hall honors LA VIRGEN DE GUADALUPE, DIOS INANTZIN, a Christmas pageant which has become a tradition in the Los Angeles community. From the first production 15 years ago, Evelina Fernandez has been an important contributor to this community-based production with professional actors and musicians. A second-generation Mexican-American, actor/playwright Evelina Fernandez is particularly well equipped to see the world from multiple perspectives. True to her roots, she became involved in the Chicano movement in college. In 1978, she played her first prominent role in Luis Valdez’s hit play, Zoot Suit. In 1985, she was a founding member of the Latino Theater Company, along with her husband, artistic director Luis Valenzuela. As an actress, she played in nearly 30 movies, shows, and film shorts. Donning her playwright cap, she has won professional recognition and several prestigious awards. Her loosely autobiographical play cycle, A Mexican Trilogy, highlighted the immigrant experience and gained critical acclaim.
