Destination Pompeii with Feast on History In this series of classes, Danielle Oteri, art historian, lecturer and co-founder of the Feast on History travel, and her partner, Christian Galliani, sommelier and Italian wine expert, will take you on a virtual visit to Pompeii and its surrounding areas to explore the history, culture, food and wine. Great for the armchair traveler or those planning a future visit to Italy. Roman House Hunters International Tuesday, April 20, 7 pm Central time $30 members/$40 non-members The Vesuvius Coast around Pompeii was where wealthy Romans from the capital went to wine, dine, and enjoy one of the world´s most beautiful coastlines. Their homes boasted elaborate frescoes, heating and cooling systems, and infinity pools with spectacular views. This class will introduce you to the known villas that were certainly among the hundreds that remain unexcavated. It includes the Portus Julius near Naples, now underwater, but can be explored by SCUBA divers, the newly discovered luxury villa at Positano on the Amalfi Coast, and the Boscoreale villa, discovered in the forest, which was certainly meant to be a luxurious retreat back to nature. This class will be held virtually via Zoom. The Zoom link will be sent in a reminder email the day before the class takes place. Please email learn@okcmoa.com with questions.
