Honoring the Italian American Cultural Club on its
Centennial.
WHEREAS, The members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly
of Ohio are pleased to congratulate the Italian American Cultural Club
on the auspicious occasion of its One Hundredth Anniversary,
celebrated May 18, 2025; and
WHEREAS, Recognition of this prestigious milestone is a fitting
tribute to the Italian American Cultural Club, for since its inception
a century ago, it has attained a remarkable record of service to the
Steubenville area. Founded in 1925 as the Steubenville Dramatic Club,
the organization staged various Italian performances such as plays,
dramas, movies, and operas to connect Italian immigrants to their
cultural roots while helping them become proud Americans, and it
gradually transitioned into its current iteration as a social club
that helps citizens of Italian descent celebrate their heritage. The
club’s accomplishments are a justifiable source of pride and an
outstanding reflection not only on the group itself but also on its
dedicated members, both past and present, and on the community; and
WHEREAS, Over the past century, the Italian American Cultural Club
has enhanced the quality of life within Steubenville and the
surrounding area, and through its generous contributions, it has
earned the respect and gratitude of generations of people. We are
certain that as this noteworthy organization maintains its unfaltering
commitment to service, it will continue in the tradition of excellence
that has long been its hallmark; and
WHEREAS, We are proud to note that it is through the unceasing
efforts of entities such as the Italian American Cultural Club that
Ohio has gained a reputation as a state that is responsive to the
