March 26th Cultural Lecture Series will begin for the Spring-2019 session. This will be a 6-week program called “The Best Of Italy” where the Caboto Club will be exploring the UNESCO World Heritage Sites Of Italy.

From the Pile dwellings in The Alps, south to Val di Noto in Sicily and across the sea to Barumini in Sardegna, we will discuss these places of significant importance to cultural and natural heritage. Despite the country’s small size in comparison to the rest of the world, Italy has the most World Heritage Sites at 54.

Each World Hertiage Site Of Italy lecture, will be presented once again by Andy & Donna Moro. This dynamic couple will share their knowledge, starting with the Northern region March 26th continue with the Central region April.9th and conclude with the Southern & Insular regions, April 23rd

As part of this lecture series, we are also offering a special detailed travelogue segment you won’t want to miss called “Sulle Strade d’Italia” “On The Roads Of Italy”. This will feature some exciting information where we will discuss some lesser-known gems as we take you on a road trip vacation throughout the same three regions. 

Have you ever thought about a vacation to Italy but are just not sure of what to do, where to go, or how to plan it? Presenter Giuliano Lunardi will discusses the Northern region, April 2nd . Stefano Nicola continues the travels for the Central region April 16th and Alex Sorrentino closes the lecture series April 30th with the Southern region.

Admittance is free and there is a pizza special for attendees – Make it a Group Event! Help us to preserve and promote Italian culture – please share this with ALL your friends via email and/or social media.
