Welcome to the Portuguese Club of Miami!
Our organization, officially established on May 25, 2023, brings together a diverse group of descendants of Portuguese ancestry from various regions, with a special focus on the enchanting island of Madeira. Our board of directors, led by President Daniel Ferreira and Vice President Javier Macedo, along with our dedicated team comprising 1st Treasurer Jaime Figueiredo, 2nd Treasurer Alfonso Macedo, 1st Secretary David Rodríguez, 2nd Secretary Ángel Martínez, 1st Member Aleixo Vieira, 2nd Member Roberto de Jesus, and 3rd Member Gilberto Vieira, represents a wealth of experiences and commitment to preserving our Portuguese heritage.
Our members are individuals who have strong ties to Portugal, having been associated with the Portuguese Center of Caracas and various Portuguese clubs and centers in Venezuela. Our upbringing and cultural influences have instilled in us a deep appreciation for our Portuguese roots, including traditions, language, cuisine, and values. As descendants of Portuguese immigrants, we carry forward the legacy of hard work, resilience, and a strong sense of community.
While our physical headquarters in Miami is still in the planning stages, our vision is clear – to create a vibrant hub where Portuguese traditions thrive, connections are nurtured, and new generations can learn and embrace their heritage. We are a community that seeks to support one another, share experiences, and celebrate our shared identity. Through cultural events, language classes, culinary experiences, and social gatherings, we aim to create meaningful connections and a sense of belonging for all members.
Join us on this exciting journey as we build bridges between past, present, and future, ensuring that the rich tapestry of Portuguese culture continues to flourish in the heart of Miami. Together, we honor our ancestors, celebrate our traditions, and pave the way for a legacy that transcends borders and unites us in pride and unity.
