For the past number of years, the Italian Women's Society has endeavored
to promote the Italian culture and local talent, both from the Italian
community and the community at large. At its 2001 Gala the
Italian Women's Society commemorated the 100th anniversary of the
death of Italian operatic composer Giuseppe Verdi. In
recognition and celebration of Verdi's life and contribution to the
world of opera and classical music, the Society hosted a musical and
operatic tribute of Verdi's works. At both the Mother's Day and
Father's Day events the Society has featured talented musicians, young
vocalists, and dancers.
The Society hopes to continue to participate in the activities of the
Santa Maria Goretti Parish and to work with and for the community.
