Miami’s franchise was first established in 1997, with the specific aim to promote the legacy of Italian culture. The institution grew popular with locals through strategic collaborations with reputable colleges, chambers of commerce and public libraries in the vicinity.

Most classes are typically offered twice per week, and at different times to accommodate varied schedules. Private or Group lessons are available.

For more details contact 305 529 6633. Società Dante Alighieri is located at 300 Aragon Avenue, Coral Gables, 33134.
