A PLACE TO CALL HOME

CCL

After 34 years serving the community, the Asian Center will finally have a home of our own! Last fall, the Asian Center and several Cultural Centers of Lincoln partners broke ground on our new building. In summer of 2027, the Cultural Centers of Lincoln building will open. 

We are so excited for the resource this building will be for thousands of Lincolnites! Curious about this project? Check out the recent Cultural Tapestry episode featuring a conversation with our Executive Director Sheila and Tom Randa of the Good Neighbor Community Center.

YOU can help make this dream a reality by donating to this special project. Visit https://culturalcentersoflincolncollaborative.com/ for more information, or contact Sheila at sheila@lincolnasiancenter.org for more information.
