Boise, Idaho, USA. This weekend is the feast of Saint Ignatius, San Inazio, the patron saint of Basques in Boise.  But the Basque club preferred to play it safe and save its usual festivities for next year, and so there won’t be any dances, or events in the Basque Block.  The festivities will include just three events a Pintxo-Pote, not in the Basque Block; San Inazio procession and Mass; and the picnic in the park for club members only. For anyone unable to attend, Aita Antton will celebrate mass online on Sunday (see more below).

From 4pm-8pm, thanks to the Basque Museum there will be a Pintxo-pote at the Jump Share Studio (1000 W Myrtle Street).
