Feast of Nations was superb says Schafer
It was a delightful surprise to discover the Feast of Nations celebration a couple of weeks ago.
We had a wonderful evening thanks to the International Organization and to all who participated.
The entertainment with UND student and faculty performers was superb as were the featured acts from Folklorama in Winnipeg sponsored by the University.
Our student hosts Eric and Erica kept things moving on stage while we feasted on a six course dinner prepared by the Alerus kitchens using traditional recipes from several countries.

We had the opportunity to visit booths set up by several student organizations showcasing their country’s arts, crafts and information about their homelands. The presentations were a small sample of the 85 different countries from which UND students come.
Our only disappointment was learning that the Alerus Center only holds a little over a thousand people so not all who wanted to attend could. Get your tickets early next year. We recommend it!
