| Italian Cultural Center - Il Punto!Connecting diverse communities through a common passion for Italian arts and culture. |
Dalla primavera all'estate!We hope everyone is enjoying the beautiful Spring. With summer just around the corner and the potential to gather again is opening up somewhat, our thoughts are turned to Ferragosto, sipping something refreshing for an Aperitivo, and listening to some live music again! To that end we are putting out a call for volunteers to help organize a few of these events. If you'd like to help out please visit our volunteer page and fill out the form at the bottom to let us know what your interests are. Other volunteer tasks are listed there as well. Thank you!, Board of Directors NewsBiblioteca Italiana Seattle (BIS) BIS is a program of the Italian Cultural Center - Il Punto. We recently relocated BIS to the Casa Italiana building in Burien. We hope the new location will give more people in the greater Seattle area access to this one-of-a-kind collection of literature, children's books, film, and music in the Italian language. Volunteers are currently unboxing and re-shelving books and BIS will be re-opening in the near future. Books, music and film donations are still being accepted. Please visit the BIS page for more information. Monetary Donations made by check for BIS and other Il Punto programs can be mailed to: Italian Cultural Center - Il Punto, PO Box 30674, Seattle, WA 98113.
