Dinner and Discussion with Cultural Theorist, David Michalski

Under the Tuscan Sun, Olive Garden-style restaurants, and a multi-billion dollar Tuscan home industry all mark the expansion of what has been referred to as the Tuscan life-style. Join cultural theorist David Michalski (UC Davis) for a dinner conversation and visual presentation on the appeal of the Tuscany lifestyle in America. We’ll discuss recent debates over its authenticity, and question how ideas of the good life take shape over a selection of delicious Italian food.
