HOW ITALIANS CHANGED AMERICA

Author Paul Paolicelli

Sunday, January 26 | 1:00 PM

at Casa Italiana

595 Third Street, NW, Washington, DC

Please join us in welcoming back author Paul Paolicelli, the author of “Under the Southern Sun” and “Dances with Luigi”. He gave a talk to the society a few years ago on his experiences living in Southern Italy while researching his family heritage. For the January 26 meeting, Paul will tell us about the time he spent in Abruzzo, Basilicata, Calabria, and Sicily while studying the effect of emigration from Southern Italy to America and the many resulting success stories that changed America. Paul will also tell us about his ambitious program at the University of Calabria. Prior to the lunch and program, the Society will install the officers and three members of the board. We will have a raffle with some wonderful prizes.
