The Chicago Cultural Alliance's mission is to connect, support, and promote centers of cultural heritage for a more inclusive and culturally vibrant region. The CCA's programming and services celebrate diversity, preserve history, and honor tradition while amplifying cross-cultural collaboration. Offerings include large-scale collaborative programming that showcases our memberships work and missions, shared services, professional development opportunities that build capacity, and promotion that platforms cultural events and exhibits across the city. Our annual programs include the Activating Heritage conference, Leadership Council, World Dumpling Fest, and Journey Chicago series. The Chicago Cultural Alliance is the only organization of its kind in the US, representing 50 Chicago-area cultural heritage museums, centers, and historical societies.
