Italian Cultural & Community Center

Our Mission
The mission of the Italian Cultural & Community Center is to advance, celebrate and preserve Italian culture and heritage.

Our History
In 1976 the Italian Cultural & Community Center was formed as an umbrella organization. The ICCC coordinated the activities of more than 20 Italian Clubs in the greater Houston area. The ICCC became a non-profit organization with a 501(c)3 status in 1982. In 1988, the ICCC, with the proceeds from its earliest fund-raising efforts, purchased the historic Milford House in the Houston’s Museum District and became known as the Italian Cultural & Community Center.

The Gift of Italian Culture
For members of Houston’s Italian-American Community, many of whom became active ICCC members, the acquisition of the Milford House was the realization of a dream. For Houstonians of all backgrounds, the Italian Cultural & Community Center is the gift of Italian culture to the City of Houston.
