For the fifth consecutive year, the Italian Cultural Center of Minneapolis-St. Paul, as a Presidio Letterario of the Società Dante Alighieri, will take part in selecting the five finalists for the prestigious 2025 Premio Strega, Italy's most renowned literary award.
You can be part of the jury by registering!
Participants will read 12 books in Italian and select their top three favorites—no book reports required! The books will be available in digital and print formats by mid-April. Each participant will then submit their top three selections through an online voting form by June 1st.
This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with others who share a passion for contemporary Italian fiction and nonfiction.
After the reading and voting, we'll gather for aperitivo, stuzzichini e chiacchiere to share impressions and celebrate the experience together.
It's fun—join us!
