(Washington, D.C. – April 8, 2010) The National Italian American Foundation (NIAF) is proud to announce the launch of Tutto NIAF, a new daily blog that examines NIAF’s mission, U.S.-Italy relations and all things Italian American.

“NIAF’s latest initiative is reaching new audiences and is further expanding the Foundation’s mission,” NIAF President Joseph V. Del Raso, Esq. said.

Look to Tutto NIAF as a resource on the Italian American community – including the latest museum exhibits, books and films, updates on U.S-Italy trade and economic relations, travel resources and, of course, NIAF programs. Additionally, Tutto NIAF features links to newspaper and magazine articles about Italy and Italian America.

Writing an article on Italian travel, culture, food or wine? Share links to your published works with us and they may appear on Tutto NIAF. Your submission could reach a new audience of devoted readers!
