Got a spare $25? Why not become a member of the Italian Cultural Centre in Vancouver? Here are 10 outstanding reasons why:
10) The language classes: From beginner to intermediate, the classes span from Italian for business to conversation classes. Sì!
9) Cooking and wine tasting classes: Naturally.
The Viva Italia! class: Our favorite! Six evenings of food, music, art and cinema. A true Italian cultural experience.
7) B-I-N-G-O. No cultural centre is complete without bingo, but the ICC boasts $12,000 in payouts every week for the past 3 months!
6) Jobs: Being the Assistant to the Italian Cultural Director sounds like a good gig. The position is currently open.
5) Catering: Tasty menus created by the centre’s very own Italian chef.
4) Library: Once you’ve signed up for your Italian classes, you may want to supplement your new lingo with some Italian classics. By the way, the library is looking for volunteers so you can give back a bit.
3) Cinema: Monthly showcase of Italian films.
2) INDOOR BOCCE COURTS! Enjoy this traditional Italian game (and a Vancouver beach favorite) throughout the rainy season.
1) The best reason to become a member: The centre’s mission since 1976 to share Italian culture with the community.
To that we say, grazie!
