American Italian Renaissance Foundation

To honor and celebrate the American Italian Culture: past, present and future. The American Italian Cultural Center promotes the culture and heritage of the American Italian community by offering Italian language and culture classes, seminars, concerts, and events.

For over forty years, the American Italian Renaissance Foundation has documented the history of Italian Americans in New Orleans and provided community outreach in four primary endeavors: the American Italian Cultural Center (AICC) in downtown New Orleans, the American Italian Museum housed in the AICC, the Italian American Digest distributed to a readership of 20,000, and the American Italian Research Library, currently located in the Special Collections at the Jefferson Public Library in Metairie.
