Celebrating, Promoting, and Preserving Italian Culture in Kenosha
Who We Are
Our Society is made up of three membership groups—The Men’s Society, The Ladies’ Auxiliary, and CIAO (Contemporary Italian American Organization of Kenosha). Each plays a vital role in supporting our mission through events, outreach, and volunteerism.
“At the IA Society, we value personal relationships. If you’re interested in joining, we’d love to have a conversation and get to know you. Let’s connect and share more about what membership involves.”
