The Hellenic Cultural Society of Dallas (HCSD) is a non-profit cultural organization that exists to advance, celebrate, and preserve the Hellenic culture and heritage. The idea for the Society began in 1992. It had a storied existence led by many notable Presidents until about 2004-05. The Society went dormant until this past year. In the fall of 2019, a few community members and past Society presidents, formed an Organizing Committee to revive the Society.
Today, the Society has new Bylaws, a new Board of Directors with an Executive Committee to lead the day to day and it exists as a non-profit organization with the intention to become a 501(c)(3) later this year.
Later this year, we will announce our first events. Should you be interested in becoming a Steward of HCSD, please send a request for a Stewardship form to
