St. Bart’s Italian Feast Days Start Friday

St. Bartholomew’s church in Norwich will host its annual Italian feast days starting at 5 p.m. Friday and running through Sunday morning with a special 9 a.m. mass in both English and Italian.

The celebration includes a massive assortment of Italian food, games and an hour-long performance of excerpts from the Norwich theater company’s production of “Godspell” on Friday evening.

The first Ed Caputo Memorial 5K run/walk kicks off at 10:30 a.m. Saturday behind the parish center. The Italian feast day is free and open to the entire community.
