Museo Italiano Schools Program
Museo Italiano is a great place for a school excursion – a must for Italian language classes and also of interest to senior History and English students. The aim of Museo Italiano is to display and interpret the experience of Italians who journeyed to Australia and settled in Victoria. The exhibition explores the themes of Departures, Making Lives, Settlement, Interactions, Identity and a timeline that puts into context the world events alongside Australian events and the Italian–Australian events in Victoria.
