Enjoy Our Drop-in, Museum, Rentals and Catering in Edmonton
The Ital-Canadian Seniors Association has so much to offer at our modern facilities, consisting of a drop-in centre, rentals, catering, and museums in Edmonton. From professional conferences and meetings to your big and small events, you can conveniently book our rentals to hold all your celebrations or meetings. Enjoy our professional and deliciously arranged catering arrangements, including buffets. Every meal is cooked in-house only. You can also order take-out for your family or corporate gatherings.
Our museums are a hit among schools looking to arrange fun learning experiences for students. These facilities are also used by seniors from other drop-in centres. All visitors are also welcome to participate in numerous activities that our drop-in centre offers. For our members, volunteers have offered classes in sewing, knitting, crocheting, paper tole, and Italian cuisine. For the general public, our centre has held workshops and seminars that have dealt with various topics of interest.
We have even allowed other organizations to use our facilities for various needs. Some of the organizations that have used our facilities previously include various dance groups. Teachers from high schools, such as St. Cecilia Junior High School, Cardinal Leger Junior High School, and O’Leary High School, have also been welcomed when they bring their classes to our centre. We provide an immersive Italian environment and lessons on how to play bocce, which is a traditional Italian game that resembles lawn bowling.
Whether or not you’re a member of our association, know that we want you to feel welcome. If you’re interested in what our facilities can offer, contact us.

At our museum, you can see exhibits about the “Coal Miners of Alberta” and more. Read our president’s letter to learn more about our museum.
