About Us

The Arab American Cultural Center of Silicon Valley (AACC-SV) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering, preserving, and promoting the social, cultural, and civic engagement of Arab Americans in Santa Clara County. Rooted in community since 1989, AACC-SV became an independent 501(c)(3) organization in 2004, building on decades of grassroots work to celebrate Arab heritage.

Our community includes people from many of the 22 Arab countries as well as allies who want to learn more about our rich and vibrant heritage. 

AACC hosts film screenings, cultural events, community social gatherings, Arabic and ESL language classes, game nights, guest speakers, book readings, educational speakers and discussions, dabke folklore dance lessons, yoga classes, belly dancing classes, and more.
