The Croatian Cultural Center is a non-profit, volunteer-based organization dedicated to educating the general public about the rich and diverse cultural heritage of Croatia. Our vision is to engage not only people of Croatian-American descent, but all people with a desire to participate in our activities, events, classes and fundraisers. The Center is dedicated to embracing the local residents of San Pedro, along with the greater Los Angeles area by partnering with the local community organizations and our current 15th District Councilwoman, Janice Hahn and her representatives. The Croatian Cultural Center offers a variety of programs for the community’s participation and enjoyment, including: Croatian language classes, traditional folk dance classes, exhibits by Croatian artists, film festivals, and lectures on topics related to Croatia. We will also partner with local community outreach organizations, merchants, churches, elected officials and other ethnic associations to represent and re-enforce the power and positive influence of diversity in the community.
