Serving the community since 1980, Thai Smakom (สมาคมไทย, pronounced "tie samakohm", roughly translated as "Thai association/organization") seeks to increase visibility of the rich Thai and Thai-American culture at UCLA, and we welcome everyone (undergraduate and graduate students, alumni, etc) from any heritage and background, Thai and non-Thai alike. As UCLA's Thai Club, we strive to provide Bruins with the experience and exposure of our Thai culture through social events, education, community service, and our annual culture nights.
