These icons are near and dear to my heart as my husband and I celebrated our wedding ceremony here and our girls, Giuliana and Sofia, were baptized. Before having a family and meeting my husband, I began - what would be - my lifelong journey of studying, promoting and celebrating my Italian heritage as my passion and career. It was at this sanctuary that I began participating in community Italian events; leading clubs; studying the language, launching with my fellow Italian American friends the premiere Italian street festival on the very streets of Holy Rosary Church and what is now, the coveted Italian American Museum of Washington, D.C. (IAMDC.) God Bless the creative minds that created this museum and the wonderful sponsors that have made this dream a reality.
It is with great honor that CiaoDC kicks off the IAMDC Fall series this month on November 16, 11-12:30. For more information and to RSVP click here. Tour is $10 with 15% of the proceeds going to the Italian American Museum DC. Limited Capacity. Lunch options available for additional fee.
