The Turkish Canadian Cultural Association was founded on October 3, 1971 and became a legal and registered not-for-profit organization in Canada on April 17, 1979.

The aim of the Turkish Canadian Cultural Association is to bring the Turkish people living in Canada together through various social events and activities, as well as introduce the richness of Turkish culture to Canadians. In other words, our purpose is to contribute to the improvement of mutual understanding, interest and fraternity between Turkish and Canadian people. We believe that enabling Turkish people to experience their own culture under the roof of this association helps create solidarity in addition to positively representing Turkish society in Canada. Along with this understanding, our association organizes various events and activities, such as film festivals, photo exhibitions, concerts and many more. Our activities are supported by both Turkish people living in Canada and Canadians who like to know more about Türkiye and Turkish culture.
