For four days in mid-August, Massasoit Road in Worcester (MA) will be home to a little piece of Italy on this side of the Atlantic as the Our Lady of Mount Carmel and Our Lady of Loreto Parish hosts its annual Italian Festival, celebrating the passing down of culture through generations.

“Every time you turn around, there's going to be something going on — food or music or dancing,” festival chair Tom Annunziata said. “We like to extend the invitation to everybody. Everybody's Italian at the festival.” The Italian Festival will run from Aug. 14 to 17, with gates open from 5 to 10 p.m. Aug. 14 and 15, noon to 10 p.m. Aug. 16 and noon to 6 p.m. Aug. 17.
