Italian
Cultural Institutes


The Italian Cultural Institutes (Istituti Italiani di Cultura - IIC) are official bodies operating outside Italy under the guidance of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Italy. They contribute to the diffusion abroad of the various forms of Italian art such as music, cinema and design and encourage the promotion of high level studies about Italy and exchanges of scholars.

The Institutes cooperate with the Italian Embassies in granting scholarships, organizing scientific events etc., and offer several services: libraries, information activities, Italian language courses, periodic events, such as lecture series, and occasional events, such as exhibitions, concerts, cinema and theatre performances.
