She then went on to change the way the world sees children. Her work began in Rome\, but her vision traveled everywhere\, including Europe\, Asia\, the Americas\, Australia\, New Zealand\, and beyond. Montessori became one of Italy’s great gifts to the world. \nFrom Vetrini: “Montessori once wrote that “beauty in the school invites activity and work\,” and that sentence has always stayed with me. It feels so deeply Italian: beauty is not extra\, beauty is part of life. A table set with care\, a flower in a vase\, a child pouring water with concentration\, a room prepared with love — these are not small things. They are culture. They are dignified. They are Montessori.” \nDuring this presentation\, Vetrini will share Maria Montessori’s life\, her Italian roots\, her courage\, her scientific mind\, and the reason her method still feels so alive today. Discussion will include Montessori education not as a trend\, but as a universal way of understanding human potential — from children to adults\, from schools to families\, from leadership to community life. When practiced with depth and respect\, Montessori works because it honors something simple and powerful: every human being wants to grow. \nThis presentation is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served. \n August 30\n @\n2:00 pm\n\n \n Add to calendar \n \n \n \n\n\n Google Calendar\n\n\n iCalendar\n\n\n Outlook 365\n\n\n Outlook Live\n\n\n\n Carmel Clay Public Library\n\n55 4th Avenue SE\n \n Carmel\,\n IN\n 46032\n United States\n\n\n + Google Map \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n IHSI Book Club – August 2026 \n\n\n \n IHSI Book Club – September 2026 URL:https://italianheritage.org/event/ihsi-lecture-series-maria-montessori-life-as-an-italian-woman/ LOCATION:Carmel Clay Public Library\, 55 4th Avenue SE\, Carmel\, IN\, 46032\, United States CATEGORIES:Cultural Event,Free Event,Lecture Series ORGANIZER;CN="Susan Santore Lew":MAILTO:susan.lew27@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20260916T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20260916T113000 DTSTAMP:20260715T190557Z CREATED:20251013T013405Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260715T190557Z UID:22358-1789558200-1789558200@italianheritage.org SUMMARY:IHSI Book Club - September 2026 DESCRIPTION:IHSI Book Club – September 2026\nSeptember 16th – The Longest Echo by Eoin Dempsey \nSummary \nAgainst the backdrop of WWII-ravaged Italy comes a powerful and emotional novel of love\, survival\, justice\, and second chances. \nClub & Book Discussion Leader: Ray Brown (ray.e.brown@sbcglobal.net) \nFormat: Lunch & Socialize @ 11:30am; book discussion follows. \nRSVP (rowlettmm@aol.com) appreciated\, but not required. \nNo cost to participate apart from covering your own lunch order & obtaining books. \n September 16\n @\n11:30 am\n\n \n Add to calendar \n \n \n \n\n\n Google Calendar\n\n\n iCalendar\n\n\n Outlook 365\n\n\n Outlook Live\n\n\n\n Meridian Hills Country Club\n\n7099 Spring Mill Rd\n \n Indianapolis\,\n IN\n 46260\n United States\n\n\n + Google Map \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n IHSI Lecture Series – Maria Montessori: Life as an Italian Woman \n\n\n \n IHSI Book Club – October 2026 URL:https://italianheritage.org/event/ihsi-book-club-september-2026/ LOCATION:Meridian Hills Country Club\, 7099 Spring Mill Rd\, Indianapolis\, IN\, 46260\, United States CATEGORIES:Book Club,Free Event ORGANIZER;CN="Marilyn Rowlett":MAILTO:rowlettmm@aol.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20260916T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20260916T203000 DTSTAMP:20260720T003629Z CREATED:20260716T133215Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260720T003629Z UID:23107-1789583400-1789590600@italianheritage.org SUMMARY:Pasta Making Class DESCRIPTION:Pasta Making Class\nCome Join us for a Pasta Making Class\nWhere: Angelo’s Italian Market\n95 S 1st St.\, Zionsville\, IN 46077 \nWhen: Sept. 16\, 2026; 6:30-8:30pm \nOur class is fully private — just our group in a classroom\, and a whole lot of fresh pasta.
