Scholarships to Study in Italy
The primary purpose of the Dante Alighieri Society of Denver is to promote the knowledge of Italian culture through the study of the Italian language, literature, history, music and art. Since its founding in 1985, the Society has furthered this goal by awarding more than $350,000 in academic and music scholarships to numerous American college and university students in the Denver metropolitan area and in northeastern Colorado.
