An idyllic setting of beautiful Venetian music against the backdrop of a majestic Renaissance fountain was the setting for the duel commemorations of the 65th Anniversary of the Republic of Italy and the 150th Anniversary of the Unification of Italy held June 4, 2011 at the Italian Cultural Garden in Rockefeller Park. 
The evening was hosted by the Consul of Italy in Detroit and the Italian Cultural Garden Foundation.
