RESOURCES FOR GAYS & LESBIANS The gay and lesbian associations, Circolo Arcigay and Arci Lesbica Il Cassero are good starting points for getting oriented with the city’s gay and lesbian culture.

Il Cassero/Arcigay/Arcilesbica Via Don Minzoni, 18 Tel. 051.6494416 www.cassero.it www.women.it/arcilesbicabologna www.arcigay.it (national site) HANDY REFERENCES THE PHONE BOOK Information is not always where you might expect it to be in the Italian phone book. For example, Bologna’s city offices are not listed under “B” for Bologna but under “C” for COMUNE DI BOLOGNA. Read the table of contents in the front of the yellow pages or try searching online at www.paginegialle.it. You can also consult the English yellow pages www.intoitaly.it, however Bologna listings are limited. TUTTO CITTÀ Tutto Città, a booklet containing detailed maps of the city, is provided by the phone company. Tutto Città is also available online at www.tuttocitta.it. Here you can map driving and pedestrian routes in almost any Italian city. A few weeks before Easter, don’t be surprised when the parish priest comes knocking to bless your house. A holiday tradition, he’ll come in and chat for a moment, say a prayer and sprinkle some holy water around before leaving. Some people give the priest a small donation for his trouble. It is acceptable to decline if you want. Simply say, “no grazie.” Elizabeth Garvey 19
