Cultural Excursions
Living in Italy - even if it is only for a short time - is a unique experience, full of opportunities. Rome is the world’s largest outdoor museum, rich with churches, monuments, and galleries. Because the culture of Rome is so rich and varied, the program organizes special educational tours to places of cultural importance throughout the city. The entire cost of these guided visits is included in the overall cost of the program. Also included is participation in co-curricular activities related to Italian and Classical culture, including museum visits, neighborhood tours, and movies. Examples of past excursions outside of Rome include visits to Ostia, Naples and Pompeii.
Besides the regular courses, the following activities are examples of activities offered in the past:
- Introduction to Rome: the town, its services, and its cultural events.
- Guided tours of Rome: Art history itinerary; Italian architecture itinerary.
- Italian Cinema: Presentation and viewing of films of representative Italian directors
- Italian Literature: The new Italian writers.
- The Regions of Italy: history, culture, traditions, and life today.
- Italian "Opera".
- Italian songwriters.
