The Hungarian Cultural Center was established on May 29, 2024, located in the city of Newark, California near the San Francisco Bay.


The Cultural Center was a long-awaited realization for the Hungarian/American community. It had been over 30 years since there was a cultural center where Hungarian families and their friends could gather and enjoy traditional events.

Mission Statement

The Hungarian Cultural Center of the San Francisco Bay Area is dedicated to fostering a vibrant community that celebrates and preserves the rich cultural heritage of Hungarians. We endeavor to serve as a welcoming hub for individuals of all backgrounds to experience and engage with Hungarian traditions, arts, language, and history. Through a diverse range of cultural programs, educational initiatives, and community events, we strive to strengthen connections within the Hungarian diaspora and build bridges with the broader Bay Area community. Our mission is to ensure that the legacy of Hungarian culture thrives in future generations, contributing to the rich multicultural fabric of our region.

At the core of our mission is a commitment to fostering Hungarian heritage, culture, and art by:

  • Building Community: Creating a welcoming space where everyone can gather, connect, and contribute to our cultural vitality. Embracing and highlighting the rich tapestry of Hungarian cultural heritage, from time-honored traditions to contemporary expressions.
  • Promoting Inclusivity: Ensuring our programs and services are accessible to all, reflecting the range of voices and experiences in our Hungarian-American community.
  • Fostering Creativity: Providing a nurturing platform for artists and social organizations to innovate, collaborate, and present their work.
