The New Jersey Italian Heritage Commission (NJIHC) is proud to invite you to its 13th Annual Congress, "Showcasing New Jersey Artists," on Saturday, November 12th. The 2016 Congress will feature presentations from prominent local artists and will be immediately followed by a reception featuring heavy hors d'oeuvres and musical entertainment. Guests will have the opportunity to explore the museum's galleries and enjoy good food and camaraderie with leaders of the Italian American community and local representatives.

Past Congresses have featured presentations from scientists, business leaders, and even Supreme Court Justices that have strong connections to both New Jersey and Italy. This year's edition will feature presentations from Emmy-nominated filmmakers Marylou & Jerome Bongiorno, book artist Maria G. Pisano, and celebrity illustrator James Fiorentino.
