Balliamo! Italy in Motion - Heinz History Center
Discover the cultural tapestry of storytelling through dance.
Join the Italian American Program and Allegro Dance Company for an immersive Italian dance experience. Learn regional dances from across Italy, from the north to the south, step-by-step and discover the stories behind each movement.
Celebrate H.J. Heinz’s 180th birthday with us as History Center educator Lloyd Black metaphorically breaks down the iconic Heinz ketchup bottle into its parts – glass, tomatoes, labels, and more – to tell Pittsburgh’s story.
Examine historic bottles, learn some quirky Heinz facts, and stay until the end for a ketchup tasting!
