Chi siamo

About Us
"Lasciate ogni speranza, o voi ch'entrate "

​Founded in 1896, Dante Melbourne’s history is defined by our unwavering commitment to promoting Italian language and culture in our community; most importantly in our schools. We organise a range of competitions for primary and secondary school students, we support University students studying Italian by organising academic and social events and we reach out to our wider community through our literary lectures and other cultural endeavours.
