Welcome to the Vermont Italian Club
The Vermont Italian Club is a 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 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, club members share their experiences through a variety of club activities and events.
Burlington, Vermont, where the club is centered, once had a “Little Italy” section as well as the more well-known Italian communities in Barre and Rutland. Many of the Italian homes and businesses that constituted a large tract of downtown Burlington in the area of Battery and Pearl streets were replaced in the urban renewal projects of the 1950’s and 1960’s, and “Little Italy” gradually gave way to 'urban renewal.' Today's VIC seeks to revive the spirit of that Italian populace and neighborhood and honor their contributions to Burlington, Vermont's Queen City.
As part of the Little Italy celebration in October 2011, a 10-day all-expenses-paid trip for one to Tuscany, Italy, including airfare, was generously donated by VBT Bicycling and Walking Vacations, an award-winning bicycle and walking tour company in Vermont. The drawing was held in late December ...and the 2011 winner was...
