Shoqata Lazerati Michigan

Shoqata Lazerati Michigan, also known as Shoqata Kulturore Atdhetare Lazerati Michigan, is a cultural-heritage association based in Dearborn that works to preserve and share Albanian and Lazerati culture. The Dearborn Historical Museum lists the group among its Guild Members with that exact mandate: sharing and preserving Albanian and Lazerati culture and heritage.

The organization's work centers on community history and exhibitions in Dearborn. Its Threads of Identity: The Albanian Heritage Woven Into Dearborn's Story project documents Albanian family stories, artifacts, and migration history tied to the city, with the group stating it is committed to documenting and celebrating this history and honoring the sacrifices of ancestors.

Public programming has included an exhibit on Elias Maliq Lazarati, a 1897-born U.S. Army veteran, presented at 22271 W Village Dr, Dearborn, MI 48124. The contact page invites the public to take part in the group's cultural events and to collaborate on projects, though it does not publish a recurring program schedule.

Ardi Ahmeti publicly identifies as President and Founder of Shoqata Lazerati Michigan, with the role dated to February 2025. The organization appears in the GuideStar nonprofit directory under EIN 33-3714562, with a Dearborn, MI location. Its Guild membership at the Dearborn Historical Museum is the clearest sign of local institutional ties, anchoring its role as a small but active voice for Albanian heritage in the Dearborn community.
