Celebrating Polish Independence Day in St. Petersburg, FL
view photo gallery photos here On Saturday, I had the honor, as the director of the American Institute of Polish Culture, to organize and lead this year’s National Polish Independence Day celebration at the Tadeusz Kościuszko Monument in St. Petersburg, FL. We were fortunate to have historian Mr. Golebiowski, who shared the inspiring story of Poland’s fight for independence. Rev. Dr. Andrzej Gorczyca offered an engaging insight into the history of the Kościuszko Monument and its sculptor, Andrzej Pitynski. Kaya Grabowski, secretary and co-founder of the University of Tampa Polish and Slavic Student Association, introduced this exciting new student organization dedicated to celebrating Polish and Slavic heritage. It was wonderful to see so many local Polish-American organizations joining us, including the John Paul II Polish Center, Klub Polonia, Inc., the Polish American Association of Sarasota, the Polish American Engineers Association of Florida with its president Grzegorz Kapuscinski,
Polish Saturday schools in Clearwater and in Tarpon Springs, and the Florida chapter of the Kosciuszko Foundation, represented by its President, Russell Skibicki, CFP®, CEPA®. We were also deeply honored by the presence of members of the Polish Armed Forces stationed at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa.
A special thank you to Eva Skibicki, President of the American Institute of Polish Culture, Tampa Bay, for her invaluable help in organizing this event. Together, we honored our heritage and the enduring spirit of Polish independence. Dziękuję to everyone who joined us!Bozena Gasior, Director

ADVANCEMENT OF POLISH CULTURE THROUGH EDUCATION
Our children are our legacy. We want them to be well equipped for the challenges ahead. Cultural education consists of the capacity for reflection. Children and also young people in cultural education learn to reflect upon their own culture, culture of others and culture in general.. Our goal is to assist educational institutions in promoting Polish culture, folklore and customs so that our children will succeed in their own right and so that they will continue to promote richness and importance of Polish culture in todays' world.
