History Storia
The Vermont Italian Club is a tax exempt 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a mission of discussing, learning, sharing and celebrating the cultural heritage of Italy and Italian-Americans. Our club brings to the Vermont community educational and other events and activities that foster an intimacy with Italy through the people who love her. Whether through travel to Italy, the study of the Italian language, or through the love of Italian film, art or literature, or food/cooking, the club members share their experiences through a variety of club activities.
The Club was established in the fall of 1983 as the Vermont Italian Cultural Association by a group of Italian Americans, newcomers to Burlington, Vermont, where the club is centered.
