Join us for an afternoon of celebration, heritage, and heartfelt recognition as the Northwest Ohio Polish Cultural Center hosts its 2025 Northwest Ohio Polish Cultural Center Hall of Fame Dinner. This special event brings together members of the Polish-American community and friends in support of our shared mission to preserve and promote Polish culture in Northwest Ohio.
This year, we proudly honor four individuals and families whose dedication and service have left a lasting impact on our community:
✨ The Menke Family – for their continued support and multigenerational commitment to Polish cultural preservation
✨ Fr. Ron Olszewski – for decades of spiritual leadership and cultural advocacy within the Polish-American community
✨ Duane Malinowski – for his lifelong passion for Polish music and traditions, especially through his work with local polka bands
✨ Dan Tyburski – for his tireless service, leadership, and generosity in advancing Polish heritage initiatives in the region
Enjoy a delicious dinner, fellowship, and a program that celebrates the spirit of Polish pride, resilience, and community.
Tickets can be purchased here.
Let us come together to honor the past, celebrate the present, and build the future of Polish culture in Northwest Ohio.

Polish-American Concert Band Free Concert
The Polish-American concert band, founded in 1890, is a volunteer, nonprofit performing group that welcomes musicians of all levels from all over Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan. While maintaining a collection of traditional Polish waltzes, folk songs, and, of course, polkas, the PAC Band also enjoys performing music of many genres, including big band, pop, classical, show tunes in addition to traditional concert band literature.
The PAC Band enjoys providing music at a wide variety of performance venues throughout the year. The season includes indoor and outdoor festivals as well as a finale holiday concert in the Fall. A few of the band’s favorite venues include the Toledo Zoo and the Polish Summer Picnic.
