70 years building connections.The American Club of Madrid formally began in 1952, founded by CEOs of various American companies based in Madrid. In the 50s and 60s, when Madrid was a favorite location for filming the grand American movies of the period, several American celebrities such as Eva Gardner, Charlton Heston and Tyronne Power were also associated with the ACM. Over the years, the American Club of Madrid has evolved with the changing times and today´s ACM created a modern Mission Statement, which is to engage the American population of Madrid, as well as the local Spanish and International community through events and activities, which help foster a strong relationship and understanding between the United States and Spain |
