The mission of the Italian Cultural Center, Inc. is to preserve, communicate and celebrate authentic Italian art and architecture, music, fashion, artisanship, cooking, history and politics, language and family/regional traditions for the benefit of the Italian community living in Maryland as well as for the enjoyment and education of individuals who have an interest in Italy but no family roots there. The Center provides a forum for the exchange of ideas of international proportion through language studies, lectures and demonstrations, exhibitions and special holiday events.
We offer an intimate view and experience of Italian life in its past, present and future outlooks to enable our local Maryland community to appreciate and enjoy Italy’s many contributions to the world scene. [At the present time – and for the foreseeable future, – the Italian Cultural Center is in the hands of a dedicated volunteer staff.]
