Highlights for the Winter Season

Watch the ICI website & Notiziario for updates  

Biblioteca italiana  February 27 from 7-9 at Tom Van's home.  We will be discussing Anthony Everitt's Cicero: The Life and Times of Rome's Greatest Politician.  Participants are invited to bring snacks or wine to share.

Carmichael's is an excellent source for the text - and we hope you will continue to support them.

FUTURE READING LIST:

March 26 -- Federico Fellini's Fellini on Fellini

April 30 -- Leonard Sciascia's The Moro Affair  

Italian Language Classes 

Spring semester college #2  level Italian classes are full. You may register on the waiting list by contacting Marha Hasselbacher at mjh07@insightbb.com.

Basic #2 Italian class will be available again next September. But you can get a head start with Andiamo!

 ANDIAMO!  Not ready for college level language class?  Want to sample your language skills with a shorter commitment and no homework? Need enough Italian to get by on your first (or second or third) trip to Italy?

Join us for "Andiamo": a four week mini course.  Mark your calendar now for Sunday afternoons March 4, 11, 18, and 25.  As with our Bella Lingua program last year, we will start with refreshments and have time to socialize after a 1 hour interactive lesson.  Details will be posted and registration will open in February.  Tuition for the 4 session series will be $40 for members or $60 for non-members.

ICI's "Cucina - A Food Journey through Italy" was another sold-out affair. Teresa Crocco combined stories of Italy and demonstrated ample samples of seven courses, accompanied by wine and a packet of recipes. Many thanks to Mary Ann Thoren who chaired the hard working committee that produced Cucina and to the friendly folks at Cooking at the Cottage, in St. Matthews.

Photographer Patrick L. Pfister captured Teresa Crocco's enthusiasm for all regions of Italian cooking.
