North Dakota Art Project aims to make creativity more accessible
MANDAN, N.D. (KFYR) – The North Dakota Art Project works in the Art Workshop in Mandan and aims to foster creativity in the community.
The Art Workshop is a 24-hour studio in Mandan that is open to the community. There, the North Dakota Art Project aims to support local creativity by making art accessible to everyone.
“It’s not in your house, so that means you’ve got a place to go. You know being retired, you always have to have a place to go, and I never was one for coffee shops, so here I am,” said participant Ken Rogers.
The nonprofit organization provides funding for art supplies and classes for local artists. It particularly aims to help groups of people who may not have the resources to practice their crafts.
“Just helping people get into art, it can be a challenge, and finding funding to help people do that is kind of where we started,” said Chris Kraft, president of the North Dakota Art Project.
Participant Ken Rogers is a veteran and retired from the Bismarck Tribune. He likes to paint and draw at the studio and has been doing art for over five years. The Art Workshop provides a space for him to keep his art supplies and his art projects while he is in the process of finishing them.
He said the North Dakota Art Project can help veterans by providing them with a space to cope with complex feelings and memories from their service.
“Not everybody that leaves the service has a good time of it, so this is another way for them to express themselves,” said Rogers.
He also said that being surrounded by others who also have a passion for art in this studio gives people a chance to ask questions and become close with others who share a common interest.
The painting Rogers is currently working on is a portrait of a selfie he took with his wife on a ferry between Italy and Greece.

Landowners take transmission line fight to North Dakota Supreme Court
BISMARCK — Landowners in Dickey, LaMoure and Stutsman counties made their plea to the North Dakota Supreme Court on Tuesday, June 23, to fight a massive powerline project.
The 90-mile-long “Jamestown to Ellendale” transmission line, also known as JETx, would use towers up to 150 feet tall.

Timothy Paul Ganyo
March 31, 1957 – June 5, 2026
Timothy Paul Ganyo, 69, passed away on Friday, June 5, 2026, after a courageous six-and-a-half-year battle with non-small cell lung cancer.
Tim was born on March 31, 1957, in Grafton, North Dakota, to Willard Paul and Marlene Frances Ganyo. He grew up in Grafton, where he attended school and was active in both hockey and football. During his high school years, he also worked as a lifeguard at the local swimming pool.
Tim proudly served his country for more than three decades. He enlisted in the United States Air Force on December 4, 1977, and served until 1981, with an assignment at Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota.
Following his active-duty service, he joined the Air National Guard while attending North Dakota State University. Later, seeking a new opportunity, Tim joined the Air Force Reserve and relocated to Northern California, where he served at Travis Air Force Base as a flight engineer aboard the C-5 aircraft.
Throughout his distinguished military career, Tim was activated numerous times and served in support of multiple military operations around the world, often flying into war zones. He treasured the friendships he made with his fellow airmen and took great pride in serving alongside the members of the 312th. Tim retired from the United States Air Force Reserve on June 1, 2010.
Committed to lifelong learning, Tim earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Technology in August 2003. Following his military retirement, he worked in the laboratory at Shell Oil Company in Martinez, California.
Tim spent more than 40 years in Northern California, where he met his wife, Roxanne. They shared 34 wonderful years of marriage. He was a devoted husband, a supportive stepdad, and a loving grandpa who cherished time spent with his family.
Tim was a passionate fan of University of North Dakota hockey and proudly remained loyal to the Fighting Sioux throughout his life. He was also a member of the Solano Yacht Club and enjoyed the friendships and camaraderie he found there.
Tim is survived by his mother, Marlene Dvorak; his beloved wife, Roxanne Ganyo; his stepchildren, Ryan Brown, Chad (Tonya) Brown, Jaime Wolf (Dave), and Kristy Brown (Devin); his grandchildren, Calleigh Brown, Jaxon Brown, Taya Wolf, and Jordyn Brown; his brothers, Mark (Rhonda) Ganyo and Michael Ganyo; and many nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his father, Willard Paul Ganyo; and his brothers, Ray Ganyo and Philip Ganyo.

Grand Forks man appeals manslaughter conviction
GRAND FORKS — A Grand Forks man is working to overturn his conviction for killing his friend.
Donald Bartlette’s attorney, Kiara Costa Kraus-Parr, wants the North Dakota Supreme Court to declare a mistrial when he was found guilty of manslaughter in the October 2024 death of Tony Kiehl.
During a hearing Monday, June 22, Costa Kraus-Parr said prosecutors unfairly made jurors biased against Bartlette at trial in August of last year.
That includes referencing past drug use and testimony from a witness who called Bartlette a bully.
That testimony was objected to, and the objection was sustained.
Bartlette was found guilty of manslaughter and was later sentenced in December to 10 years in prison.
Bartlette, 46, maintains Kiehl, 49, came at him with a knife and he acted in self-defense.
Our newsroom occasionally reports stories under a byline of “staff.” Often, the “staff” byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.
