Il Circolo, the Italian Cultural Society, raised more than $30,000 for earthquake victims in Italy, as well as for scholarships for local students, at the gala. After a cocktail hour with a Tuscan antipasto in the Mediterranean Ballroom, the 250-plus guests were welcomed into the Venetian Ballroom for music by Gino De Marco’s band. Giada Valenti sang the national anthems of Italy and America, and dinner followed. ABOVE: (l-r, seated) Nina Nathel, Lucy De Feo and James Oussani; (standing) Gregory Oussani and Marina Perna.
