promoted the Italian language and culture in
the Windsor area through various activities, |

| such
as teaching the Italian language to children, conferences,
movies, theatrical plays, concerts, round table discussions, scholarships,
publications, exhibitions, and banquets. It was often realized
with the cooperation of the clubs, agencies and local schools,
Boards of Education, St. Clair College, the Multicultural Council
and the University of Windsor. Every year the Society held the
well known Dante Festival. Various plays were presented such as “Chi
non prova non crede”, “A Quattro Gambe”, “Lazzi
Di Maschere”, “Un Morto Da Vendere”, “L’Uomo
nudo, L’Uomo in frak”, “La Patente”, etc.
