Dr. Davide Tanasi, a professor in the Department of History and the director of the College of Arts and Sciences’ Institute of Digital Exploration (IDEx), presented a three-part lecture series on his research into ancient Sicily at The Italian Club of Tampa located in Ybor City. The sold-out event sought to reinvigorate the cultural legacy of the club while fostering connections between the Italian American community and USF.
The Italian Club of Tampa was established to provide a space where Italian Americans could unite to navigate the social and economic challenges during the turn of the century. Today, its iconic building in Ybor City remains a hub for this community and others in the Tampa Bay area.
