Even just thinking the words “Italian food” is enough to make your mouth water and heart flutter. Pizza, fresh pasta and sauces, family, friends, wine, conversations, more wine, romance, more pizza, we could go on! Your chance to celebrate all things Italian is on Saturday, Aug. 2 and Sunday, Aug. 3, at the 29th annual Festa Italiana! Enjoy great Italian singers and dancers, stroll the marketplace’s vendors, play some bocce ball, check out Italian cars and scooters but also make sure to enter the “take me away” raffle for your chance to win two round-trip tickets to Italy! Best of all, indulge in the plethora of delicious food available from caterers and restaurants like Bella Mama’s Italian Kitchen, Adorno’s, La Famiglia, Dianda’s, The Pasta Queen and others. The event is happening at The Croatian American Cultural Center (3730 Auburn Boulevard) and runs from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, then 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Sunday.
