Australian New Zealand American Assoc. 50 Years Strong

Established in 1972, ANZAA is a non-profit organization, whose mission is to provide a forum for a large and active membership of Australians, New Zealanders and Americans, residing in Minnesota, to connect and socialise through regular events in and around the Twin Cities.

Down Under Club

ANZAA started out as the "The Down Under Club" and started intermittently in the early 70’s with a group of expats from Australia and New Zealand, working for Minnesota Companies like 3M, Control Data & University of Minnesota.

On ANZAC day April 25th 1972 the Down Under Club officially incorporated with bylaws and a board.

Get ready to soak up the late summer sun with your fellow Aussies and Kiwis!
ANZAA is thrilled to announce our annual late summer picnic.

We're bringing the best of Down Under to our American friends on August 19th, inviting everyone for a day of traditional food, games, and good old Aussie-Kiwi camaraderie.

So grab your picnic blanket, bring a mate, and join us as we come together to celebrate the shared heritage that binds us, even miles away from our native lands. It's more than just a picnic, it's a slice of home away from home!
