Carmine Bovi tosses pizza dough as Italy didn't feel far away for Utahns visiting the third-annual Festa Italiana at The Gateway on Sunday. The two-day festival brought a long list of Italian influences to one place, including food stands, live music, drinks and dancing. While admission was free, proceeds from the festival's sales will go to local and national charitable organizations supported by the Italian-American Civic League of Utah and Italian Club of Salt Lake.
