A cultural association is an organization that promotes and preserves the traditions, arts, and values of a specific culture or community. These associations often organize events, workshops, and activities that celebrate cultural heritage, such as festivals, exhibitions, and performances. They serve as a platform for members to connect, share experiences, and educate others about their culture. Cultural associations can focus on various aspects, including language, music, dance, and cuisine. They may also advocate for the rights and interests of their community, fostering a sense of belonging and identity among members. Examples include ethnic clubs, art collectives, and language schools.
