Italian Festival
There’s no shortage of fun things to do this weekend! The Italian Festival is being held Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 8 & 9 at Walsingham Academy, 1100 Jamestown Road in Williamsburg from 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. They’ll have wine tastings, great food, and entertainment.
There’s an admission fee, in addition to the cost of the food, because this is the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Colonial Italian American Organization. This group funds $2,000 scholarships for 4 high school students annually, as well as providing grants to other local educational charities.
Admission:
- $12 advance, $15 at gate with Wine Tasting
- $5 advance, $8 at gate
Get your advance tickets at a number of local merchants, or purchase online at the festival web site.
The wine tasting sounds like a great time! Do you know what types of Italian food will be there?
They have a menu posted: http://www.ciaowilliamsburg.org/Menu.htm Looks good to me! I got my ticket today at Pottery WIne and Cheese Shop in the Village Shops at Kingsmill.
