The Polish Association in Hobart (Związek Polaków w Hobart) was established in 1950 by Polish post-World War II migrants who arrived in Tasmania to start a new life. The Association is their legacy to the future generations.

The aims of the Polish Association are to promote Polish culture and language and to build friendly links between Polish and Australian communities. One of our major activities is the provision of support services to elderly and frail members of the Tasmanian Community, with a focus on persons of Polish descent.

The Polish Association runs a Hostel (with a bus stop at the door step, close to the CBD, shops and restaurants) at New Town as well as “Podhale”- Polish Summer Retreat at Carlton Beach.
