What we do:
Every month at Casa, we will host various speakers on many subjects of interest to Italian Americans. Everything from our people’s stories, to Italian history, from politics and fashion to music and regional languages, customs, and traditions.
To top it off, we have native Italian speakers that will delight you in your forbears’ native language.
Our mission:
Through the power of storytelling, we honor our Italian roots while nurturing cultural connections, ensuring our community’s stories continue to educate, inspire, and unite for generations to come.
