Cultural Ambassadors
The P.K.M. Polish Folk Dance Group is one of the cultural
activities of the Polish Intercollegiate Club of Philadelphia. In 1960,
the organization expanded their community outreach and formed
the P.K.M. Polish Folk Dance Group to promote Polish dance through
public performances. The group consists of high school, college,
graduate students and alumni and performs at various events each
year including various events in the Philadelphia area, including the
annual Pulaski Day Parade, Polish Constitution Day celebrations, the
Polish Harvest Festival “Dozynki” and has also performed at festivals
in Poland. As the Polish Intercollegiate Club marks its 100th Anniversary and
their P.K.M. Polish Folk Dance Group marks its 55th Anniversary,
the Polish American Congress and Polish American Cultural Center
Museum join with all of Polonia to extend congratulations and our
thanks for promoting Polish history and culture and for bringing
so many people together during the last century to celebrate Polish
pride.
