The IHC was founded to promote Irish culture in Cincinnati through the study of customs, dance, education, film, genealogy, history, language, lectures, literature, music, mythology, poetry, social interaction, song, sport, theater, and the visual arts. Located on the east side of Cincinnati in a renovated late-19th and early-20th century school building, the IHC is dedicated to fostering Irish heritage, culture and traditions in our city and providing a place to do so that is affordable, accessible and comfortable.
