In Cerca di Una Nuova Vita
Italian Immigrations from Italy to California
Originally exhibited at the Museo in 2009 and at Arte Italia in Reno, Nevada in 2010, this show documents the experience of California’s Italian immigrants who left their country for the promise of a better life, while highlighting their struggle, determination, creativity, and ultimately, the cultural and economic contributions they have made to the development of the Golden State.
Each show is a reprise of an original exhibit created by the Museo Italo Americano and sponsored by the E.L. Wiegand Foundation of Reno, Nevada.
