American Institute of Polish Culture in Tampa Bay

Our Mission

We are dedicated to preserving and promoting the richness of Polish culture including the contributions made by Poles and Americans of Polish descent to the advancement of our civilization. Our children are our legacy. We want them to be well equipped for the challenges ahead. Cultural education consists of the capacity for reflection. Children and also young people in cultural education learn to reflect upon their own culture, culture of others and culture in general. Our goal is to assist educational institutions in promoting Polish culture, folklore and customs so that our children will succeed in their own right and so that they will continue to promote richness and importance of Polish culture in todays' world.
