Each year, the Bismarck State College theatre program hopes to bring culture to the capital city through a series of stage shows. In their latest performance, BSC students are taking their viewers back in time for a trip to Xanadu a story filled with roller disco, rocking music, and retro charm.
The United Tribes Powwow is back in town, bringing Native Americans of all tribes and backgrounds to North Dakota for a weekend of culture and comradery as well as competition.
Although North Dakota is a state that focuses more on manual work than the creative arts in many cases, this does not mean that there is no creativity to be found. The artistic community of the state is very much alive and well, and nowhere is this more visible during the summer than at the state's annual Capital A'Fair.
The Bismarck Dream Center began as a small food distribution group, dedicated to donating food and proving meal runs for those in need in the Bismarck-Mandan community. However, the community nonprofit has grown significantly since its early years to the point where the organization now has a fully- established, permanent residence in town, which serves to not only provide the Bisman area with food and clothing donations, but also offers a whole host of additional services, including counseling, ministry, and free meals thanks to a partnership with fellow local food bank The Banquet.
