ICS 2024 Gala Awards Dinner "A Taste of Time"

This year, our theme revolves around the philosophy and mission of Slow Food, embodying the values of sustainable gastronomy and preservation of culture and territory. We are privileged to celebrate Carlo Petrini, the visionary founder of Slow Food, alongside honoring Roberta Ceretto, representing an exclusive wine cellar producer from Langhe, renowned for their commitment to excellence.

This year’s dinner is set to elevate the culinary experience to new heights, surpassing our already excellent standards. You will enjoy an exquisite selection of wines and gourmet dishes!

We also offer several free events to ensure accessibility to all, as we strongly believe that culture should be inclusive. Your support is crucial in making this possible!
