In honor of the Church of St. Mary's 150th Anniversary, Bridget Halloran-accomplished artist and beloved art teacher at the School of St. Mary-was invited to create an original commemorative oil painting in celebration of this historic milestone. 

Drawing inspiration from her faith, her deep ties to our parish, and our shared heritage, Mrs. Halloran has captured the historic splendor of the original Church of St. Mary. Her work reflects not only the church's architectural beauty but also the devotion and perseverance of Catholic immigrants who, through faith and sacrifice, built a spiritual home for generations to come.

With a palette reminiscent of Winslow Homer, Mrs. Halloran's artistry evokes the rich historic period of our parish's founding in the 1800s.
