"All Roads Lead to Rome," an extensive exhibit at San Francisco Airport's International Terminal, lifted off on Saturday, March 11, with a big, Italian styled opening. The Italian Consul General, Lorenzo Ortona, talked of the connections between Rome and San Francisco, while Piraneseum partner, Lucia Howard gave an introduction to the show.

With prosecco provided by the party's sponsor, the Institute of Architecture and Art (ICAA), and Italian refreshments provided by CoorItalia, the stage was set for appreciation of the Italian art and objects shown in "All Roads."
