The Market Common turned into Italy for the 28th Italian Festival in Myrtle Beach, hosted by Sons and Daughters of Italy Lodge 2662. There were Italian art vendors, music, and food during the two day event. “Naturally the star of the show is the food,” Frank Baldari, Chair of the Italian Festival said.
“Ask your neighbor what their favorite food is; Italian. Italian food is the best,” Baldari said. Tucked in the corner of the festival grounds, Tina Smith, a member of Sons and Daughters of Italy Lodge 2662 was teaching attendees about their Italian heritage. “Families need to know where they came from,” Smith said.
