Queens Italian Feast




The Italian feasts tradition was carried over by immigrants and began a tradition of re evocations of the feasts of their old towns. It was a way to keep the ties strong and a way to have fun. This feast is a remake in the Sates of the Festa del Ventuno of Castellammare del Golfo and it honors the same Madonna del Soccorso. More photod will follow.
I can only add:
Have a delicious week / Abbiate una settimana deliziosa
