Saturday, November 11. 11 AM - 5 PM. Amici Park, Date and Union, Little Italy (250 Date St.) - San Diego. Stop by and enjoy some treats, visit with friends, and learn about our programs and events at our Amici House Open House!

Working in conjunction with the Little Italy Association, Convivio, a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing Italian cultural identity, has re-established a cultural center in Little Italy–Amici House–in Amici Park near Date and Union Streets.

The historical home that has been transformed into Amici House is situated near Washington Elementary School, Our Lady of the Rosary Parish, and the upcoming Piazza della Famiglia. Amici House adds an important cultural and social element to this hub of activity in the neighborhood.

Here you can learn about our multifaceted programming, enjoy some complimentary coffee, browse through books, explore the history of Little Italy through historical photos, see a film, listen to some music, take an Italian course, join in an event, make new friends, and simply, indulge in la dolce vita.

As an important stepping stone in the overall Convivio vision, Amici House will be a place to learn about our goal of establishing a large-scale cultural center in San Diego by 2019—the Convivio Center—which will include performance space, archives/museum, gallery space, café, and a media library.
