Magdalena Reta de Urquiza, the Undersecretary of Culture and Education, Prof. Carlos Gatto, councilman Mauricio Rey, representatives of the Italian Community, United Immigrants, Patriotic Institutions, students from the Capuchinos Secondary School, members of the Security Forces; cultural exchange students belonging to the NGO AFS, and the general public.
