The Brooklyn Italian Card Club was founded in Williamsburg, Brooklyn in May of 2021. Started by Lou Grayson & Antonio Di Meglio with the mind to bring classic keystones of Italian culture to the modern era. Focusing on cards is a pass time with centuries of history & hospitality.

We sought out to revitalize the local Italian community that had been deeply impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We got our start at Mario’s Butcher Store, hosting community dinners for anyone in the neighborhood.


Our events focus on culture, conversation, and food. All our card games are accompanied by food or coffee and conversation about the culture in all aspects.

Our goal is to spread the beauty of Italian culture (briscola! coffee. wine. language.) against the diverse backdrop of Brooklyn, New York.

We meet weekly and all are welcome, always.
