The AICCSF strives to maintain, preserve and restore a permanent and prominent presence for the Bay Area American Indian inter-tribal community that continues to exist. Our vision is to create and provide a dynamic place of learning, culture and community to the citizens of the Bay Area to learn about American Indian heritage and culture and to enhance a sense of understanding about American Indians in the urban environment. AICCSF will demonstrate community health and wellness through kinship and spirituality by nurturing our connection to our knowledge keepers, oral traditions, tribal languages and cultures, while encouraging fearless expression through theater arts, music, ceremonial events, media, writing, and film that will increase the visibility of American Indians in the greater Bay We are working to recreate a space that will provide culturally relevant education, art, information-sharing, and wellness programs in an inclusive “safe community space.” This space will be open for the American Indian community and everyone in the bay to participate, connect, and grow.
