After a year off, organizers tell 12 News they're excited to celebrate the Northside of Endicott once more. Little Italy Endicott's Annual Gusto! Italian Fest makes its return to the village Friday from 5 to 9 p.m., the event will be held along Witherill Street between Oak Hill Avenue and Hill Avenue.

Organizers said Thursday there will be between 25 to 30 vendors at the event, showcasing the best food, crafts and other businesses the neighborhood has to offer. The event is thrown by Little Italy Endicott, a group whose leader said is not only a celebration of Italian heritage and culture but also the culture of this neighborhood.
