Italy in a Glass: An Evening with Susan Gravely & VIETRI

Join us for a special cocktail reception as we celebrate the newest book from Susan Gravely and VIETRIItaly in a Glass.

Inspired by Susan’s travels and friendships in Italy, this beautiful book captures the Italian ritual of aperitivo—the late-afternoon pause to sip, snack, and savor life. Through stunning photography, heartfelt stories, and recipes for cocktails, mocktails, and small bites, Italy in a Glass invites you to bring that Italian spirit home. Italy in a Glass celebrates the Italian art of elevating the everyday. From hand-selecting fresh ingredients at the market to serving cocktails in heirloom glassware and setting a table aglow with candlelight, author Susan Gravely shares how the small, thoughtful details she discovered in Italy transform simple moments into beautiful celebrations. This book is an invitation to slow down, savor, and bring a bit of Italian magic into your own home.
