The mission of the institute is to promote Hungarian and other Central Eastern European cultural events, including film, theater and music, in the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California. Programs and events may include art exhibits, musical presentations, theatrical and dance performances, and conferences that showcase the diverse traditions of Central Europe. We are also interested in exploring the possibilities of technical innovation and collaboration between individuals and companies in California and Central Europe. We aim to promote youth activities and other charitable and educational events. And we will maintain a website to inform the general public of our various activities.
