ABOUT US…

A short time ago, a group of us decided to serve and educate our community and share our talents about our rich and beautiful culture.

Our talented performers have traveled the country electrifying our community with a insurmountable dedication to art and culture. This is our way of saying “grazie” to our ancestors who took the leap of faith.

We are Ti Piace, the new and spirited generation of Italian Americans. Proud of our heritage and culture and ready to make a difference. Ti Piace, Italian American Presentations, Inc., is a new non-profit that preserves, presents and promotes positive images of Italian Americans through art

Ti Piace will offer great shows and starring new and award winning Italian American talent such as Tre Bella, Allison Scola, Jenn Palumbo, Dimitri Minucci, Deb Longino and a group of other talented Italian American entertainers.  Additionally, Ti Piace will offer classes in singing, writing and acting.  Ti Piace is creating art, literature and music that represents the Italian American experience and supports artists with a public forum for their work.
