Our goal is to bring you exclusive, hard-to-find gifts by featuring unique Polish products, small business owners, and local artists. Find those special items for your loved ones that you won’t see anywhere else!

Admission is free!

As an added bonus, our Friendsgiving Buffet will also be hosted under our roof that day. Whether you join the buffet with your friends or simply stop by the area, we would love for you to visit and start your holiday season with us!

Interested in becoming a vendor for our Polish Holiday Bazaar? 

Our primary focus is on featuring Polish products, business owners, and makers to celebrate our culture. However, if you are a local artist or offer other unique products that would be perfect holiday gifts, we warmly encourage you to apply as well.

We are committed to supporting small, independent businesses, which is why there are minimal fees of $45.00 associated with participation. Each confirmed vendor will be provided with an 6 or 8-foot table.

October is Polish American Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the culture, traditions, and incredible contributions of Polish Americans, especially here in Michigan, which is home to nearly one million people of Polish descent.

From the Upper Peninsula to Metro Detroit, Polish families have built communities filled with faith, hard work, and love for our heritage. This month is about honoring that legacy and continuing it together.

As General Manager of the American Polish Cultural Center in Troy, I warmly invite everyone, whether you have Polish roots or simply enjoy good food, music, and community, to celebrate with us in meaningful ways:

• Visit the American Polish Cultural Center
  Stop by and experience the heart of Polish culture through our events, music, and warm hospitality.
• Dine at Wawel Restaurant
  Enjoy authentic Polish dishes like pierogi, kielbasa, and bigos, prepared with tradition and love. Bring your friends and family, it’s the perfect way to share a taste of Poland.
• Join Our Events
  From live music Fridays to cultural gatherings, there’s always something happening that connects people through Polish heritage.
• Support and Get Involved
  Become a member, attend an event, or share our mission with others. Every bit of support helps keep Polish culture thriving in Michigan.

This month—and all year long, let’s celebrate the pride, history, and spirit that Polish Americans bring to our communities.

Serdecznie zapraszamy! (We warmly welcome you!)

General Manager, American Polish Cultural Center
