ABOUT US

Welcome ~ Witamy

 

 

The Polish Center of Wisconsin is owned and operated by the Polish Heritage Alliance, Inc., a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and promoting Polish heritage and culture. 

 

The Polish Center evokes the architectural style of a Polish country manor house, a fitting symbol of Poland’s proud national heritage and tradition of gracious hospitality.  Since it opened in 2000, it has served as an elegant setting for social events, meetings, cultural programs, concerts, weddings and more.  We have a 3000 square foot ballroom that can accommodate banquets for up to 300 people, and several other rooms that can hold 10 to 100 people.  The Center overlooks a picturesque 20-acre lake and has a patio along the back of the facility with tables and chairs where guests can relax and enjoy the view.
 

The Polish Center houses the offices of the Polish Heritage Alliance, including Polish Fest, the annual three-day festival of Polish music, cuisine and culture that is held at the Henry W. Maier Festival Grounds in downtown Milwaukee.  The Polish Heritage Alliance holds a wide array of cultural, social and dining events throughout the year, including workshops, concerts, a card club, weekly bingo sessions, fish fries and brunches. 

 

The special attention to Polish heritage and culture in the design and décor of the building makes it especially appealing to members of the Polish American community.  Many families have held their birthday parties, weddings, bridal or baby showers, or anniversary parties here because of the special connection they feel the building brings to their cultural heritage, while just as many families and businesses have held their events at The Polish Center because the building’s space, versatility and gracious environment make it the perfect venue for any event. 

 

The Polish Center is open to the public, and we invite anyone interested in our activities or in renting one of our rooms to contact us for more information.
