  2. PERFORMING ARTS,
  3. HISTORY AND LITERATURE,
  4. REGIONS OF ITALY THEIR BUSINESSES AND LIFESTYLE,
  5. LANGUAGE SPEAKING, WRITING, TEACHING AND CONVERSATION,
  6. FOOD AND WINE.

This year we have planned over 30 programs. I encourage you to look over our calendar of events in our AMICI newletter and come visit one of our events.

In addition to our programs we maintain a small library of books, Italian and English, as well as movies that can be loaned.
