ITALIAN-AMERICAN CONFERENCE DINNER
MAY 24, 2021

Members of the Italian-American Conference of State Legislators enjoyed an evening together at the Italian Community Center in Troy, NY. We were disappointed to have to cancel our Annual Italian Festa but we were excited to gather together and acknowledge this year's four scholarship recipients via Zoom. We are looking forward to the 2022 Festa event.

Thank you to our friends at the ICC for their outstanding food and hospitality.
