The annual Little Italy Feast of the Assumption (referred to informally as The Feast) is a four-day Catholic street festival centered on Holy Rosary Church on Mayfield Road near its intersection with Murray Hill Road in Cleveland's Little Italy neighborhood.

While the amazing food and entertainment are big draws you will be reminded that the Feast is a celebration of the Feast of the Assumption Holy Day which honors Jesus' mother being assumed into Heaven.

There are so many delicious foods - pizza, sausage, cavatelli, etc. but we also found some Italian artichokes. Watch the quick video.

One last thing. We ran into an interesting guy on the street. His name is Random and he has an ancient typewriter like device and creates poems for people on any topic they suggest. Watch the quick video.
