Polish Cultural Institute

Polish Cultural Institute

The Polish Cultural Institute in New York City is a diplomatic mission of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland.

Based in New York City, the Institute is dedicated to nurturing and promoting cultural ties between the United States and Poland, both through American exposure to Poland's cultural achievements, and through exposure of Polish artists and scholars to American trends, institutions, and professional counterparts.

The Institute takes an active collaborative role in the organization, promotion, and in many cases the actual production of a broad range of cultural events in theater, music, film, literature, and the fine arts.

With its extensive contacts in both America and Poland, the Institute is in an excellent position to help such initiatives in a variety of ways that include fund-raising, facilitating contacts in Poland, organizing concurrent panels of artists and scholars, generating press coverage, and developing public outreach.

There is also a Polish Cultural Institute in London.
