This weekend is the the big Giglio event in East Harlem. On Sunday, August 9th will be the men's lifting of the massive Giglio monument with a live band at its base. There will be a mass at 12:30 PM at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Shrine Church and the actual lifting will commence around 2:00. Come visit this unique event and celebrate Italian Harlem. As with most festivals, there will be crowds, street vendors and food, so not a bad thing to head out to on a summer Sunday. See more on the East Harlem Giglio website: LINK. Go to Pleasant Avenue between 114th and 115th Street to get a good view. Take the 6 Train to 116th Street and walk east past 1st Avenue.
