Italian Cultural & Community Center

Our Mission:

The mission of the Italian Cultural and 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 and Community Center is the gift of Italian culture to the City of Houston.


The Italian Cultural & Community Center (ICCC) actively serves:

-Italians who have relocated to Houston
-Americans of Italian descent
-Italophiles, those who are interested in Italy and its culture
