Italian Association of Arizona

Italian language classes for beginners through to conversational Italian are hosted by the Italian Association. Our instructors are the top in linguistics and have received praise from the students in each class. The classes are LIVE and ONLINE and limited to approximately 10 students per class so the interaction is personal and assistance is guaranteed for each student.

The Italian Association was founded on the premise of promoting Italian Arts & Culture. Our vision is to be able to gather in time the necessary financial resources to create an Italian Cultural Center with services and support for the Italian people the community at large. We hope one day that Arizona will be the home to an area in the valley dedicated to its very own version of Little Italy.We hosted an Italian Festival in Downtown Phoenix and Sun City in February/March of 2023 and another one in downtown Scottsdale in October 2023 along with hosting SVDP and other volunteer activities. We continued hosting Italian Language classes both in person and online, building community among the students with breakfast meetings and promoting other local valley cultural events. We are helping to promote our business members, sponsors and others along with the sharing the love of the Italian culture, food, and language through our social media platforms and newsletters. We also host many happy hour events to help promote the restaurant and business while bringing community together.
