At Italian Stories, we believe in the transformative power of
storytelling to bridge generations and preserve our heritage.
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.
What we do
Every month, 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 will have native
Italian speakers that will delight you in your forbear’s native language.
