The legacy of Italy’s dance heritage

Friday, February 7th 2025 – We invite you to join us for a special event hosted by the Dante Alighieri Society, featuring Irma Cardano, an esteemed dance professional visiting the U.S. for a series of masterclasses. In her lecture, “Dance and Culture: An Italian Perspective and Mastery,” Irma will explore the profound connection between Italian culture and the art of dance. She will share her personal journey, reflect on the deep-rooted relationship between Italians and dance, and discuss the influence of social media in shaping dance figures—often without formal training or expertise. A reception will follow the lecture.
