Moorhead, Minnesota resident Newzad Brifki’s journey to America began in Kurdistan, from which his family fled in 1988 when he was seven years old, due to the oppressive governmental regime of Saddam Hussein. He lived in a refugee camp in Turkey for 4 years before coming to America with his family, being sponsored by two families through Lutheran Social Services.

Brifki discusses his book, “My Journey to America”, a personal memoir about this journey to America.

He graduated high school in Moorhead, and eventually earned an undergraduate degree in Business Administration and an MBA in 2014.

Brifki is the founder and director of the Kurdish Community of America, which is a resource center for the vast local Kurdish community members in the Fargo-Moorhead area and a bridge to the greater community, nurturing understanding of Kurdish people’s stories and history.

Lucille Nelson of Argyle, Minnesota has been painting and drawing since childhood. She currently has an exhibit at the NWMAC River Walk Artist Gallery in East Grand Forks. The exhibition, “Past and Present Passages,” is a selection of her works she has created since mid-2000. Lucille’s works evoke the feeling of being carried from your current place and time–transporting the viewer to a farmyard in the 1950s, to a lake in northern Minnesota or among children playing in a yard.
Many of Lucille’s drawings bring to life bygone scenes and whimsical moments of the past, and especially portray the people who lived them–her uncle as a young boy playing hockey, her husband as a toddler, and her own children, now grown, in the vibrant purity of their youth.
She will be participating in an artist reception on Saturday, October 28th at the NWMAC Artists Gallery in East Grand Forks, MN from 1 pm until 5pm.
