Italian Heritage Month with 60 Years of Made in Italy exhibition

When we think of Italy we think of fashion, arts and of course food. In celebration of Italian Heritage Month, Yorkville Village presents a stunning exhibition, 60 Years of Made in Italy, in partnership with the Consulate General of Italy and the Istituto Italiano di Cultura.
