The Irish Cultural and Heritage Center, 2133 W. Wisconsin Ave., is set to close its doors. The organization uses its longtime home, the former Grand Avenue Congregational Church, as a base to promote Irish culture and a venue for events. The organization was founded in 1992 and, according to city records, purchased the property in 1996 from the church. The Historic Preservation Commission locally designated it as historic in 1984.
