Italian Heritage Day
North Beach
San Francisco, California
We are proud members of the Italian American community in the San Francisco Bay Area, and together we celebrate and honor the values, culture, and traditions we have been fortunate to have inherited from the Italian American community. We recognize those contributions of the Italian American people and the impact on the community and people around us. We are committed to keeping those traditions alive for future generations and are committed to raising funds to support our philanthropic work.

2017 Italian Heritage Festival, North Beach, San Francisco, California 1848 Gold is discovered at Sutter's Mill. Massive numbers of fortune seekers from around the world begin to make their way to San Francisco to seek their fortunes. Among these new arrivals are large groups of merchant-class Italians from northern Italy. They arrive a full generation before the mass migration of the "poor huddled masses yearning to breathe free" that came to America following the unification of Italy.[from Italian heritage website]
