IS THEME FOR ITALIAN CULTURAL & COMMUNITY CENTER LUNCHEON
The Italian
Cultural & Community Center (ICCC) of Houston will hold
its sixth annual Fashion Show & Luncheon chaired by Jeff
and Kathryn Sacco Smith on Tuesday, October 14, 2025 at River
Oaks Country Club. The event will feature a runway show
of the latest Italian designs curated by Elizabeth
Anthony, a premier silent auction, and chances to win
dazzling prizes. This year, ICCC Houston celebrates esteemed
Honoree Franco Valobra for his philanthropic efforts
in Houston and beyond. In homage to Franco’s Italian
heritage and the birthplace of the Valobra Jewelry Atelier,
the event’s theme is Saluti da Torino (“Greetings
from Torino”). Don your best Italian-chic attire for
this glamorous event benefiting a worthy cause.

in scholarships to high school and college students,
