Happy Summer
July brought to us many wonderful experiences.Sue Kupka and her Silpada Jewelry were our guests for Festa Gioia July. Though it was hot it gave us an opportunity to host an evening event which we enjoyed, and offer our guests a Summer Pasta Extravaganza from the book entitled "Come Mia Nonna" A Return to Simplicity which is a collection of recipes and stories of the Puglia Region of Italy by artist and author Valentina Cirasola. Valentina made a surprise visit to Festa Gioia and signed some of her books that were purchased by our clients. She will return in August and be our guest. For the recipe make sure to visit our Facebook Page, Gioia Italian Art and Products.
If you have been to Napa you know how beautiful it is. It reminds many of us of the Tuscan hills and the architecture of Tuscany is a beautiful compliment to Napa Valley landscapes. So it is with the Meritage Resort and Spa and Vino Bello Resort in Napa. In July the Resort purchased much artwork from our featured artist Carla Almanza-deQuant and Gioia Company. We also installed masks for sale in the Spa Terra "Cave" Resort Spa. Please, if you visit the area, you will enjoy your experience here and let Victoria know that we sent you.
