Community Spotlight: Ortygia Restaurant to Host Free 500-person Dinner on MLK Day

BRADENTON – Ortygia Restaurant received a grant to feed Sicilian food to 500 people for free on Dr. Martin Luther King’s Birthday. Chef Gaetano Cannata was one of 22 recipients that received the MLK Day of In-Service Grant.
