Yazzie the Chef - Cooking in Two Worlds

Nicolet College Theatre
Admission: $5.00

Brian Yazzie, aka Yazzie the Chef, joins us to speak on the contemporary cuisine of Indigenous flavors, in a transition frompre- to post-reservation. Covering the decolonized movement and reflecting actual accessibility of organic ingredients to our community members, especially those in rural areas without means to markets.

Brian Yazzie (Diné/Navajo) is from Dennehotso, Arizona and based out of Saint Paul, Minnesota. Yazzie has a degree of Associate in Applied Science (AAS) in Culinary Arts from Saint Paul College. A delegate of Slow Food Turtle Island Association, and a team member at I-Collective: a collective of cooks, chefs, seed keepers, farmers, foragers, and scholars, he is focused on bringing awareness to the cultural appropriations of indigenous foods of the Americas.

Brian and his fiancée Danielle Polk (Hoonmana Polk) are the Founders/Owners of Intertribal Foodways, a culinary mission specifically working with and for the betterment of tribal communities, wellness, and health through Indigenous foods. They travel internationally for catering, private dinners, pop up dinners, chef demos and cooking classes, collaborations, and presentations on indigenous food sovereignty.

Wild Horses

Nicolet College Theatre
Admission: $25.00

Reserve your tickets at wxpr.org

Beer, wine, and concessions will be available for purchase beginning at 6:30 pm.

Hailing from the deep woods of Northern Minnesota, Wild Horses makes a home between the traditions of folk, western, and rock music. With roots in the Minnesota bluegrass music community, frontman Jed LaPlant draws inspiration from the simple storytelling of traditional music but offers a more dynamic and driving approach sonically. Wild Horses crafts the ability to draw listeners in with both captivating melodies and a hard-hitting drive in the same live experience. Their debut record, Runaway, was released in the Summer of 2022 followed by a Western US tour to bring the songs back to the place from which they were inspired.

Issues in Cardiology

Nicolet College Theatre

Free Admission
In Partnership with Learning in Retirement

LIR’s favorite cardiovascular internist, Dr. Joel Furda, will return to host informal discussions of some of the more common cardiovascular issues we face as we age. He will pick up where he left off in Fall of 2023 with high cholesterol and coronary artery disease (April 11), and congestive heart failure (May 14). Dr. Furda will briefly introduce each entity, then take audience questions about that topic. This will be an excellent opportunity to get a detailed overview of the effects of these conditions on the body, the possible treatments, and maybe most important of all, the best preventive measures we can all take for our health. General questions on the topics are welcome. Make a free, private appointment with Dr. Furda to ask questions about one’s personal health or health of a family member. Please call the Oneida County Health Department at 715.369.6116 for this consultation.

Dr. Joel Furda, MD is a retired (sort of!) internal medicine specialist with nearly 50 years of experience in the medical field. He graduated from University of Iowa in 1974. He had a solo internal medicine practice on Frederick Street in Rhinelander for many years, then after additional cardiovascular training, affiliated with Cardiovascular Associates, continued to serve patients in our community and region.
