Celebrate all things Italian during the second annual Arkansas Italian Food and Culture Festival on April 26-28. Held at the Clinton Presidential Center, the event will feature the best of Italian culture — including those delicious pasta dishes. 

Festivalgoers will have the chance to learn how to cook Italian food from true Italians with cooking lessons and competitions. Attendees can work up a sweat after downing plenty of carbs during the bocce ball and soccer tournaments.
