Indigenous Cultures Institute (ICI) is a non-profit organization based in San Marcos, Texas, dedicated to the preservation, promotion, and revitalization of indigenous cultures. Founded in 2006, ICI aims to foster understanding and respect for Native American and indigenous cultures among the general public through educational programs, cultural events, and community outreach.

The institute's primary focus is on the indigenous peoples of the Gulf Coast region, including the Coahuiltecan, Karankawa, and Tonkawa tribes. ICI works closely with tribal elders, scholars, and artists to develop culturally appropriate programs and events that honor and celebrate the rich traditions, histories, and contributions of these communities.

ICI's programs and initiatives include indigenous language preservation, cultural arts and crafts, traditional music and dance, environmental conservation, and youth education. The institute also hosts an annual Indigenous Cultures Day event, which features cultural demonstrations, food, and music.

ICI's efforts have earned recognition and support from local, state, and national organizations, including the National Endowment for the Arts, the Texas Commission on the Arts, and the San Marcos Arts Commission. Through its ongoing work, ICI is helping to ensure that the legacy of indigenous cultures in Texas and beyond continues to thrive for generations to come.
