Events

The Abruzzo and Molise Heritage Society (AMHS) holds a number of events and activities each year: (1) up to 6 general membership meetings per year, including a wine tasting; and (2) the annual Ferragosto picnic. These events are sponsored by AMHS or held in conjunction with other Italian American organizations. AMHS also promotes the events and activities of other Italian American organizations in the Washington, DC area.

NEXT AMHS Event: Join AMHS, the Casa Italiana Sociocultural Center, and the Italian American Museum of DC on Sunday, October 3, 2021, 1:00PM, for an interesting and informative event with Steven Livengood, Chief Visitor Guide for the U.S. Capitol Historical Society. You will surely learn a lot about the Italian connection to the Capitol, especially Constantino Brumidi, called the “Michelangelo of the Capitol.” Lunch will be catered by Fontina Grille. A raffle will be conducted at the end of the meeting.
