The Italian American Museum of Cleveland (Italian: Museo Italo Americano di Cleveland; abbreviated as IAMCLE) is a museum in the Little Italy neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio,[3] emphasizing the heritage, history, identity, and traditions of the city's Italian American community.[4] The museum was founded by veteran Cleveland judges Basil M.
