MEMORIA. Each year, during the week of January 27, CPL, the Italian Consulate General and Italian academic institutions in NY organize a ceremony to remember the victims of the Shoah and a series of events dedicated to the history and legacy of 20th century totalitarianism.
PRIMO LEVI FORUM. The Center convenes annually in New York City an international forum of scholars, scientists, writers and artists to initiate dialogues on different aspects of Levi’s work and further his quest on issues of justice, ethics, memory and coexistence.
AMERICORDO. The Center documents the lives and achievements of Italian Jews who came to the U.S. fleeing Fascist persecution. It offers access to the stories of this diverse group of expatriates who thrived in all fields and expressed, in many ways, their love of Italy and ties to their new homeland.
J-ITALY. It is a newly created portal (www.j-italy.org) that provides a dynamic guide to both historic and contemporary Jewish Italy for travelers and foreign students. Conceived, produced and maintained by CPL in collaboration with The Italian National Tourism Board, and designed by Jonathan Wajskol, J-Italy offers a vast array of new and classic articles by Italian Jewish writers. It allows visitors to explore, at their own pace, the cultural treasures of the most ancient Diaspora community in the West.
