📍 Reginato Ristorante

Tickets are $45 and include dinner, the presentation, movie viewing, and free Italian popcorn. 🍿

We can think of 109 reasons to become a member of the Ulster County Italian American Foundation!

The summer Dinner & A Movie series at Reginato Ristorante is one of them and we kicked it all off tonight with an incredible dinner followed by a lighthearted funny movie.

We can’t thank our VP Kevin Reginato and Festival Committee Co-Chair Stephanie Reginato enough for hosting our members tonight and all season long!

We hope to see you all at the next one in June 🎥 🍿 🇮🇹

🇮🇹✨ The Ulster County Italian American Foundation proudly presents the 2026 Awards Dinner ✨🇮🇹

Join us at Novella’s in New Paltz for one of the most meaningful and prestigious evenings on the UCIAF calendar.

The Awards Dinner is a signature celebration of who we are as a Foundation — honoring Italian American heritage, recognizing service to our community, and investing in the promise of future generations.

Each year, UCIAF proudly gathers to recognize outstanding community organizations whose work strengthens, uplifts, and enriches the lives of others. These honorees represent the spirit of service, generosity, and commitment that lies at the heart of our mission.

Just as importantly, this special evening allows us to celebrate and support deserving students through UCIAF scholarships. These scholarships are more than awards — they are an investment in young people, in education, and in the future of our Italian American community.

This is not simply a dinner. It is a night of pride, purpose, and tradition — a gathering of members, families, friends, supporters, and community leaders coming together to celebrate the values that define UCIAF: heritage, education, charity, family, and service.

We invite you to be part of this very special evening as we honor those making a difference today and support the students who will help shape tomorrow.

🎟️ Reserve your seats here:

We look forward to sharing this unforgettable evening of recognition, celebration, and Italian American pride. 🇮🇹

We look forward to sharing this special evening with you. 🇮🇹
