Moonstruck over New York’s Feast of San Gennaro

Moonstruck over New York’s Feast of San Gennaro

Last updated on March 14th, 2025 at 05:03 pm

Months ago when my friend Kate asked me to meet her in New York City, neither of us had any idea we’d be there for the Feast of San Gennaro. Nor when another friend offered her apartment to us in Soho did we know we’d be staying one street from the celebration. Lasting eleven days, the moveable feast of food, music, and family fun continues this weekend…see details here .   If you aren’t in town, make plans to join the event honoring the patron saint of Naples next year.  As one who has always loved Italian people and culture, I was in heaven… and when a harvest moon shone over my rooftop, I felt like Cher in one of my favorite movies, Moonstruck.
