About Polish Arts Club of Buffalo, Inc.
For over 80 years, the Polish Arts Club of Buffalo has served as a vital cultural institution dedicated to preserving and sharing Polish heritage with the Western New York community. Founded in 1945 through the vision of Mrs. John Frost, Sophie Schoen, Sophie Czech, Mrs. Francis Schuncke, and Walter Orzelski, the organization was inspired by a transformative lecture encouraging Americans to embrace Polish culture and history. The Club's commitment to excellence has remained steadfast, guided by the artistic vision of its founding President, Eugene Dyczkowski, and enriched by the intellectual contributions of notable leaders like Aleksander Janta-Polczynski. Today, this Buffalo-based organization continues its mission by providing the public with meaningful opportunities to savor Poland's cultural richness while honoring the heritage and contributions of Polish-Americans. With a membership base of approximately 200 individuals united by their appreciation for Polish culture, the Club creates welcoming spaces for community connection and cultural celebration. From intimate readings and lectures to festive holiday concerts and craft shows held at various Greater Buffalo venues, every event remains open and cordially invites the general public to participate. The Polish Arts Club of Buffalo represents more than an organization—it embodies a living bridge between generations and cultures, ensuring that Polish traditions, values, and achievements continue to resonate throughout Western New York for generations to come.
