A new cultural organisation dedicated to celebrating the heritage, traditions and achievements of Italy\u2019s Piemonte region has been established in NSW. The\u00a0Australian Piemontese Association NSW (APA NSW)\u00a0was founded in June 2026 by Mara Giribaldi Gullotta in honour of her Piemontese family and, in particular, her late father, Tito Giribaldi, with the aim of preserving and promoting Piemontese culture for future generations.<\/p>\n
APA NSW aims to continue the valuable work previously undertaken by La Famiglia Piemontese, while bringing a fresh perspective through a young and dynamic committee committed to bringing together people of Piemontese heritage, Italian Australians and all those who share a love for Piemonte. The Association also seeks to foster cultural exchange, community engagement and lasting connections.<\/p>\n
\u201cPiemonte has given the world extraordinary contributions in culture, industry, gastronomy and tradition,\u201d said President Mara Giribaldi Gullotta. \u201cOur goal is to ensure that these traditions continue to flourish here in Australia while welcoming new generations to discover and celebrate their heritage.\u201d<\/p>\n
While renowned for its Barolo and Barbaresco wines, Alba\u2019s prized white truffles, the rich chocolate tradition that gave birth to Gianduja and other culinary traditions, Piemonte is also one of Italy\u2019s most important industrial and economic powerhouses.<\/p>\n
Home to global names such as Ferrero, Lavazza, FIAT\/Stellantis and Martini & Rossi, the region has long been recognised for innovation, entrepreneurship and excellence. From the rolling hills of the Langhe and Monferrato, now recognised as UNESCO World Heritage landscapes, to the elegant boulevards and historic caf\u00e9s of Torino, Italy\u2019s first capital, Piemonte\u2019s influence extends far beyond its borders.<\/p>\n
APA NSW hopes to showcase this rich cultural and economic heritage through community events, cultural initiatives and educational activities.<\/p>\n
At its heart, the Association aims to strengthen community connections, celebrate Piemontese identity and ensure traditions are passed on to future generations.<\/p>\n
Although the Association\u2019s official launch is planned for later this year, APA NSW will host its first public event with a screening of\u00a0Trifole, a film set in Piemonte that celebrates one of the region\u2019s most cherished traditions, the search for the prized white truffle.<\/p>\n
The event will bring together members of the Piemontese community, Italian Australians and friends of Piemonte, providing an opportunity to celebrate the region\u2019s culture, history and traditions while marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the Association.<\/p>\n
Please join us for a Piemontese cinematic experience.
