Registration for the Fall 2026 Italian Language classes is now Open.
We are offering both in-person and remote classes.
Access to email and the Internet are needed for the teacher assignments, readings and other communications.
Classes will begin the week of September 14th and will run for 12 sessions for all classes.
Please be aware that some in class sessions may be via zoom.
The teacher will notify when a zoom session is necessary.
PARKING
Dorothea’s House is undergoing exterior renovations that are expected to continue until early October. As a result, parking at Dorothea’s House and the YMCA will be unavailable to our students. Please plan to use off-site parking during this time. We will send an update once our parking lot reopens.
