The Cultural Club was established on June 5, 2006 by a group of youngsters originating from the community of Kissonerga and its primary objectives were set as follows:
- To preserve and maintain the folkways and traditions of our community.
- To project and promote our rich cultural and archaeological heritage.
- To establish our Community as a cultural centre by holding nationwide events.
- To provide qualitative entertainment for the residents of the Community and a healthy occupation for the youth through a variety of activities.
- To preserve and upgrade our natural environment.
- To give youngsters the opportunity to become involved in sports and other activities.
- To raise awareness and sensitize citizens on various social problems.
- To place Kissonerga on our country’s cultural map through nationwide cultural events, archaeological conventions, lectures, tree plantings etc.
