Preserving heritage.
Building community.
PACC is a united Palestinian American organization that respects individual differences while seeking common ground to achieve positive advancements for our community in the Houston area.
From vision to
vibrant community
The Palestinian American Cultural Center was founded in Houston with a clear mission: to unite, empower, and celebrate our heritage while building bridges with the broader community.
What began as a gathering of passionate individuals has grown into a thriving organization that hosts the Houston Palestinian Festival, awards scholarships to deserving students, and serves as a cultural beacon for Palestinians across Texas.
Today, we continue to honor our roots while looking toward the future—ensuring that Palestinian culture, history, and values are preserved and shared for generations to come.
“To be the heart of the Palestinian American community in Houston—a space where culture thrives, connections deepen, and every voice is heard.”
