We are pleased to announce that we have been awarded a grant by the Hungarian Government through the Bethlen Gábor Fund Management, in support of our efforts to share with the greater community our Hungarian culture and history and the Hungarian immigrant story of Northeast, Ohio.
Did you know that the Cleveland Hungarian Heritage Society was incorporated as a non-profit corporation 40 years ago? We are going to celebrate this milestone with a wonderful party at the Museum on May 10th, and you are invited!! We will have music by Harmonia, wonderful Hungarian flavored sweet treats as well as savory treats, two very talented Hungarian folk dancers, and delicious Hungarian wines for you to taste. A new exhibit will highlight our 40 year history. The mission of the founders was to support a museum that would preserve the history of the Hungarian immigrant community in Northeast, Ohio, and would showcase Hungarian culture through its collection of fine art, folk art, books, and archival material. Since 1985, our collection has grown, our exhibits have embraced many topics, and our library has over 8000 volumes. Interactive computers enrich our exhibits, and our regular programming covers a broad range of topics. We have hosted children, high school students, college students, family reunions, political dignitaries, and the thousands of visitors who have come through our Székely gate to view our collection. With the support of our community, we have grown into a first class cultural gem located in downtown Cleveland, and we will be celebrating this milestone this year.
