Open House

open house The Italian TeamA very special event took place on Thursday last week.

The first Open House hosted by the Italian Department welcomed more than 25 people 

We entertained our guests with Italian trivia, live music (by famous Major Mandolin!), food, and drinks. Everybody had fun singing, chatting, and getting to know students and teachers from CC’s Italian program. Many thanks to all of you for making this a successful event!

Special thanks to Jessica and Francesca for being our speakers and sharing their experiences and to Ann and Inge for helping us with the organization of the Open House!

Italian-American colazione

A yummy Italian-American colazione was our last event of Block 2!

Thank you David & John for organizing it, you did a great job 🙂 We enjoyed scrambled eggs, mozzarella, muffins, Nutella and grapes while taking part in the ULTIMATE QUIZ ON ITALIAN BREAKFAST! The questions were a bit crazy and random, but it looks like you had fun trying to figure out the right answer. The Third Wheelers & The Vincitori were the official winners, congratulazioni! The Wild Bunch + Alec & Quang were really good competitors, thank you guys for participating. Enjoy block break and a presto!

Bruschetta Night!

Ciao ragazzi!

This is the official invitation to our first cultural event and yes, there is food involved!

We’ll be having a Bruschetta Night  in the Italian House on Thursday (August, 27) .
Please confirm your participation at  sara.venturelli@ColoradoCollege.edu, so that I know how many people to expect. This helps us order the right amount of food and reduce waste.
We’ll start cooking at 5 pm and I would really appreciate if some of you could give me a hand – the more people are cooking, the sooner we’ll get to actually eat, right? Please, let me know if you are willing to help me out in the kitchen.
Hope to see you all on Thursday, enjoy the first week at CC!
