History of The Grammichele Social Club
The Grammichele Social Club was established in 1977 for Melbourne based immigrants from Grammichele to be able to socialise on a regular basis.
The paesani of Grammichele had historically been able to socialise in and around Grammichele, just by walking out their front door and walking into the piazza or around the corner to a friend's home. This was not so easy to do in a large city like Melbourne, particularly when members of this community were spread around the inner and outer metro and even into the country fringe. This spanned localities such as Brunswick and Coburg, Glenhuntly and Elsternwick, Frankston and Somerville and even out to Werribee.
About The Grammichele Social Club
Grammichelesi of Victoria is a web site established by the decendants of immigrants from the town of Grammichele in Sicily, Italy, to capture and grow the history of these pioneers.
As Grammichele is a unique town built on the hexagon, so are its people similarly unique. People who left Grammichele behind them in their quest to improve their lives in a totally new world. The opportunities that their eyes and minds pursued did not extinguish the memory of Grammichele from their hearts.
It is this spirit of adventure and achievement that has driven this project; a project that is intended to establish a legacy of all those hard-working Grammicelesi for their children and future generations.
