Rochester Italian Heritage Day

October has returned and you know what that means. It’s time to celebrate Italian Heritage Month! Do you know one of the best events to honor this? Click the link below for this week’s episode of The State of Greater Western New York Report to discover everything about the Rochester Italian Heritage Day.

Three members of Cugini di ROC join the show: Kathy Castania, Overall organizer for Italian Heritage Day; Joe Chaffee, Entertainment Chair for IHD; and Jordyn Bagley, Chair of the Volunteer Committee and a member of Cugini di ROC. They tell us a little bit about themselves before explaining the origins of Italian Heritage Day.

In the second half of the show, our guests provide details on this year’s event. Listen to learn about the entertainment, the booths, and how you can uncover more about your own Italian heritage.

Our guests happily answered questions from the live audience. In fact, these are probably some of the same questions you had.
