3rd Annual Little Italy History Shuffle: A Glass from the Past

From Prohibition-era speakeasies to family-owned businesses passed down through generations, the 3rd Annual "A Glass From the Past" offers a glimpse into the colorful history of Cleveland's Little Italy, one of the city's oldest and most vibrant neighborhoods.

Your ticket includes: a historical walking tour of 5 iconic locations with sips and bites along the way, running from 1:00–3:00 pm (check-in at Alta House at 12:30 pm SHARP).

Led by knowledgeable guides, the walking tour includes:

• Italian American Museum of Cleveland
• La Dolce Vita
• Lou's Tavern of Little Italy
• Mount Granita Italian Ice
• Presti's Bakery

Then, enjoy a private party at the Alta House from 3:00–6:00 pm, featuring an Italian buffet, beer, wine, soft drinks, raffle prizes, bocce ball, and music by DJ Dan Ricci.

The walking tour requires walking and periods of standing. During check-in, attendees will be divided into 5 groups, with each group starting at a different participating location then rotating through all 5 stops. This staggered format ensures that each establishment can comfortably accommodate every group while providing an enjoyable experience for all. This event begins (12:30 pm) and ends (6:00 pm) at the Alta House.

If you would like to be grouped with specific individuals, please include their names on the ticket order questionnaire when purchasing. We will do our best to accommodate your requests,

Guests must be 21 years of age or older to participate.
