Monthly lectures, concerts, and other cultural events are held at the Institute. These showcase the latest Italian research in the Institute’s fields, engage with the academic community in Rome, and promote Finnish humanities research and cultural life to a local and international audience. For decades, the invaluable support of the Amici di Villa Lante al Gianicolo, our Italian friends’ association, has made all this possible.
