Nick Ciletti recently visited the Irish Cultural Center, which has helped Arizonans from all walks of life celebrate their Irish heritage for more than a quarter century.

"What an amazing experience it was to get to tour the Irish Cultural Center and McClelland Library - and it turned out to be incredibly personal for me and my family as well. As I was wandering around the library, peering through the shelves of books, I stumbled upon a poster that had my mom's maiden named on it - detailing the history of her last name in Ireland dating back to the 1200s! Also, for the first time, I got to see her family crest. And I think that's really the beauty of the center - it helps unlock mysteries and opens you up to yourself in ways you never expected. What a gift it was for me and my family!"
