The Inserra Chair is pleased to share a list of a select number of relevant cultural programs off campus in the vibrant Italian region encompassing NJ and NY. Such programs include film festivals, theatre festivals, art exhibits, etc. These activities are listed here to inform our students about activities related to Italian arts and culture in our area.
