About us
The Bosniaks Islamic and Cultural Center of Austin (BICCA) was established in 2022 with the mission of preserving Bosniak culture and tradition. While still a work in progress, BICCA serves a small community of Bosniaks in Austin and aims to join the network of all Bosniak communities throughout the United States. BICCA also seeks to build connections with other communities here in Austin to learn cultural similarities and differences and to have opportunity to work together on larger programs such as raising funds to assist communities at large, locally and across the board.
- Cultural Preservation!
- Spiritual Growth!
- Community Connection!
One of the future BICCA’s projects is to establish programs for youth activities, developmental, and social skills. Besides building connections with other communities in the United States, the Bosniaks Islamic and Cultural Center of Austin (BICCA) also seeks to maintain strong ties with Bosniak communities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, this includes facilitating cultural and educational exchanges between the two communities and promoting understanding and cooperation between Bosniaks in the United States and their counterparts in Bosnia and Herzegovina. BICCA’s programs and activities will help preserve and celebrate Bosniak culture and tradition across all generations of the members of the comunity.
