The Museo Italo Americano is a non-profit institution in San Francisco, California, and the first museum in the United States devoted exclusively to Italian and Italian-American culture.

The mission of the Museo is twofold: to research, collect, and display works of Italian and Italian-American artists, and to promote educational programs for the appreciation of Italian art and culture, thereby preserving the heritage of Italian-Americans for future generations. At the Museo, our commitment to celebrating Italian and Italian American culture is fortified through showcasing various exhibitions year-round, and offering a wide variety of cultural programming, including contemporary and historical lectures, immersive film screenings, book presentations, and Italian cultural events, ranging from symposia to Italian holiday celebrations. The Museo also teaches Italian classes at all levels, as well as free Italian art and history lessons in public schools in San Francisco.
