About the Museo Italo Americano: the Museo was the first museum in the United States devoted exclusively to Italian and Italian-American art and culture. The mission of the Museo Italo Americano is twofold: to research, collect, and display works of Italian and Italian-American artists, and to promote educational programs for the appreciation of Italian art and culture, thereby preserving the heritage of Italian-Americans for future generations.

Current Exhibit:  RHAPSODY features three Italian American women artists:

  • SERENA BOCCHINO
    Serena’s lively and lyrical abstract painting explores music’s lyricism, melody, and rhythm through soft and loud abstract imagery.
  • KARA MARIA
    Kara’s work reflects on Earth’s biodiversity crisis and the place of animals in our increasingly unstable environment. 
  • NOLA PARDI PROLL
    Nola is an artist who expresses her love of stone and nature’s found objects in her imaginative multi-faceted sculpture. 
More information on the artists can be found at museoitaloamericano.org/rhapsody
