All things Italian — and Italian-American — were celebrated at the 39th annual gala of Il Circolo, the Italian Cultural Society of the Palm Beaches. Festa Della Vecchia Italia (Feast of Old Italy) took place March 8 at The Breakers.
Kristen DiNonno Noffsinger and Debi Rodi were chairwomen for the evening, which honored Sen. Maria Lorts Sachs as Woman of the Year. Sachs was recognized for her efforts in promoting and preserving Italian culture in America.
