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.

FARGO, N.D. (Valley News Live) – The North Dakota Highway Patrol has released details of a fatal vehicle crash that took place at 9:58 A.M. on August 2nd.

A 68 year old man was traveling eastbound on Highway 2 when he struck a driver who was trying to cross those eastbound lanes. NDHP notes that the man tried to steer around the second driver in order to avoid the collision but was unable to do so.

The driver of that car, a 70 year old woman, was taken to a hospital in Devils Lake, but later died from her injuries.

The 68 year old man suffered only minor injuries. He is not being charged with any crime at this time.

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.
