Ecco Italy is part of an innovative Charlottesville, Virginia—based Romance Language Center offering an ever-increasing variety of educational and consulting services in the fields of Italian, French and Spanish language, culture, food/wine and travel. A cultural emporium of sorts as well as a living classroom, our aim is to provide inspired, entertaining and educated support for individuals, groups and businesses with an interest in or connections to Italy, France and the Spanish-speaking world. We offer a variety of language classes for all levels (on and off-site), consulting (business, travel, education) cultural happenings, informal conversation hours, and study abroad opportunities.
Ecco Italy’s beautiful and unique location— with Milano and Verity blue in the Pink Warehouse is the perfect setting for language, food/wine and travel explorations and helps keep the passion for European culture alive between trips overseas. Ecco Italy/Spain on Main is owned and directed by educational entrepreneur and traveling gourmet, Christina Ball.

Thanks to everyone who helped make our Think Pink party a smashing success. About 200 pink-clad guests came through to check out our new space, enjoy some aperitivo rosa (an Italian cocktail), a trio of rose’ wines and tastes of Milano’s delicious panini and gelato. Kids had storytime in Italian and Spanish and musical chairs, then we turned the stage over to Alegria for some latin and flamenco guitar and percussion. Grown-ups were having so much fun that we didn’t have a chance to play many language games – so expect some at the next class or language-specific party, for sure.
Very special thanks to Robert Harllee of Market Street Wineshop, Guitarist Peter Richardson and Allison Hurt of Flirt for those hot pink undies.
If you drove past the crowd filtering out onto South Street and were curious to know what was going on inside, here are a few photos:
