10/23 Itinerario poetico and aperitivo (event is in Italian)

This event is in collaboration with the Dante Alighieri Society - please RSVP at this link

The journey “From Andalusia to Ukraine” designed by M. Cazzanti and M. Zuccari stems from an idea discussed during Marco's visit to Seattle and Portland last October.

The set of poems by the proposed poets not only offers listeners a pleasant listening accompanied by touching music, but also launches an appeal and a Wish for Peace and understanding for the countries involved in wars.

St Clements Episcopal Church 1501 32nd Ave S Seattle 98144

  • 6:30 pm:  appetizers and food will be offered
  • 7:30 - 830 pm: Presentation and Q&A.

    Interested in Volunteering?

    We have a range of ways to volunteer. One area we'd love more volunteers is to help coordinate in-person or virtual events, classes and initiatives.
