I think that it's good to have a custom event image and a kind of module where you can decide which information you want to get from the event (using placeholders with html {eventtitle}{eventimage}{eventstartdate}...etc.).
*This feature is perfectly realized in RSEvents component, but the component itself is far from DT functionality.
I've attached the module both-ends image.
