The grand opening of the Croatian Lodge Home in 1925 in Aberdeen, Washington. The large hall was jointly owned by the Croatian Fraternal Union Lodges 271 and 323. Important as center for varied cultural activities, the hall boasted one of the finest dance floors in the Northwest. Most of the well-known big bands played there during its heyday. With the changing times and a decline in the Croatian population, the hall no longer sustained its purpose.

In 1923 the name of the organization was changed to Slavonic Mutual and Benevolent Society. In March of 2004 the Board of Directors of the Slavonic Cultural Center and the Slavonic Mutual and Benevolent Society of San Francisco voted unanimously to change the name to Croatian American Cultural Center.
