Welcome to the California Kurdish Community Center (CalKurd)

Discover Kurdistan – A Cradle of Civilization

Welcome to CalKurd, your gateway to exploring the rich tapestry of Kurdish culture, history, and community activities in California. Our center serves as a vibrant hub for Kurds and non-Kurds alike, offering a window into the heart of one of the world’s oldest cultures.

Who Are the Kurds?

The Kurds are an indigenous people with a distinct identity, language, and cultural heritage, primarily inhabiting a region known as Kurdistan. Spread across the mountains and plains of four countries—Iran, Iraq, Turkey, and Syria—Kurds have maintained their resilient spirit and rich oral tradition, despite the absence of a formal nation-state. Kurdish history is marked by both ancient contributions and modern resilience, encapsulated in vibrant traditions, dance, music, and an unwavering commitment to community.

Kurdistan: A Land of Unmatched Beauty and Heritage

Kurdistan is not just a geographic area; it’s a symbol of tenacity and beauty, with its rugged mountains, rolling hills, and fertile valleys. This landscape has not only shaped the physical life of the Kurdish people but also their cultural identity, imbuing them with a love of freedom and a profound connection to their land. The region’s archaeological sites tell tales of ancient empires and civilizations, making it a cornerstone of human heritage.
