It changed our lives in such a way that the years 2020 and 2021 will live on in our collective psyche. Everything changed and humanity reacted in extraordinary ways.<\/p>\n<p>This exhibition was inspired by what we were seeing artists create in reaction to the accoutrements of Covid19\u2013\u2013particularly the surgical-style face mask. We\u2019ve all had a love-hate relationship with the mask, whatever your view, \u201cthe mask\u201d has touched our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Many artists have created works that include mask imagery. The exhibition includes ceramics, photographs, mixed media, assemblages, drawings and paintings. Currently twelve artists are included in this group show.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Special Project: If you have cloth masks that you would now like to get rid of, please recycle them by dropping them off at The Arts Center anytime.

(AP) \u2014 Police say an armed man has been arrested after a nearly five-hour standoff with police that started when he barricaded himself inside a Fargo motel room. Authorities say the 59-year-old, Moorhead, Minnesota man was armed with a knife. Other guests at the motel were evacuated and the Red River Valley SWAT team was called to help police during negotiations. The man is facing charges of terrorizing, preventing arrest and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia. He was also wanted on two unrelated warrants. No injuries were reported.<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The same stronger-than-forecast oil prices that are swelling North Dakota\u2019s treasury also could shrink dollars for road construction next year. Oil is used for road construction and making asphalt. The state Department of Transportation already has approved 174 contracts for road, bridge and other projects this year that total $350 million. Officials say bids on those projects came in earlier this year before oil prices began surging. Officials say none of the state-funded projects being done this year are affected by higher crude prices. Next year, however, things may be different if oil prices remain strong.<\/p>\n<p>OMAHA, Neb. (AP) \u2014 A new monthly survey of bankers in rural parts of 10 Plains and Western states suggests continued economic growth in the region, even as nonfarm jobs in most of those states remained below pre-pandemic levels. The overall Rural Mainstreet economic index dropped to 65.6 in July from June\u2019s 70.0. Any score above 50 suggests growth. Creighton University economist Ernie Goss says federal labor statistics show nonfarm jobs across the region came in at 55,000 fewer jobs than before the COVID-19 pandemic began. But three states \u2014 Minnesota, Nebraska, and South Dakota \u2014 reported nonfarm employment levels above pre-pandemic levels. Bankers from Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming were surveyed.<\/p>\n<p>In world and national news&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) \u2014 A jury has found a gunman criminally responsible for killing five people at a Maryland newspaper. The jury of eight men and four women rejected defense attorneys\u2019 arguments that Jarrod Ramos was unable to understand the criminality of his actions because of mental illness when he attacked the Capital Gazette newsroom in 2018. The jury\u2019s finding Thursday means the 41-year-old will be sentenced to prison, not a maximum-security mental health facility. Prosecutors are seeking five life sentences without the possibility of parole. Ramos already had pleaded guilty to all 23 counts against him in 2019, but he pleaded not criminally responsible \u2014 Maryland\u2019s version of an insanity plea.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) \u2014 A prosecutor has rejected claims that the killing of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts could be connected to sex trafficking and other abductions around the rural area where she disappeared in 2018. Assistant attorney general Scott Brown said Thursday that a 21-year-old man\u2019s alleged confession that he helped kill Tibbetts after she was kidnapped and held at a house used for sex trafficking isn&#8217;t credible. He says there is \u201czero\u201d evidence to support the confession and that it&#8217;s inconsistent with testimony from Cristhian Bahena Rivera, the 27-year-old dairy farm worker who was convicted of first-degree murder in Tibbetts\u2019 death. Bahena Rivera testified that two masked men killed Tibbetts but forced him to dispose of her body.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CALEDONIA, Wis. (AP) \u2014 The Wisconsin Department of Justice says a man who killed a 22-year-old who was pumping gas later shot himself in the head after exchanging gunfire with an undercover sheriff\u2019s investigator. The Justice Department said Thursday that 32-year-old John McCarthy killed himself after confronting the undercover sheriff\u2019s investigator at another gas station not far away in Caledonia on Tuesday morning. The justice department says both McCarthy and the investigator were struck by gunfire before McCarthy fatally shot himself. Authorities say the investigator, whose name hasn&#8217;t been released, remained hospitalized Thursday for wounds that aren&#8217;t considered life-threatening.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>AUBURN, Ala. (AP) \u2014 Hundreds of people gathered to remember eight young people killed when a van returning to an Alabama girls home after a week at the beach wrecked last month. The victims of the 17-vehicle accident are being remembered in a public service at a church in Auburn on Thursday afternoon. The pileup occurred June 19 on Interstate 65 south of Montgomery. The eight were in a van bound for a ranch that cares for abused and neglected girls. A Tennessee man and his young daughter died in another vehicle. Investigators haven\u2019t said what happened. But a preliminary report from the National Transportation Safety Board could be released soon.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>SOPERTON, Ga. (AP) \u2014 Authorities say an interstate that connects the Atlanta area to the Georgia coast is closed in both directions after a crash knocked a bridge offline. The Georgia Department of Transportation said Thursday that a detour is in place for Interstate 16 bridge. The agency says a truck struck the bridge Thursday morning, causing it to shift about 6 feet. The agency shared photos on social media that show the bridge dislodged from its concrete base. Interstate 16 is the main route between metro Atlanta, Savannah and Hilton Head Island in South Carolina. The bridge is about 150 miles southeast of Atlanta.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BERLIN (AP) \u2014 More than 50 people have died and dozens are missing as heavy flooding in Germany and Belgium turned streams and streets into raging debris-filled torrents that swept away cars and toppled houses. Authorities in North Rhine-Westphalia state said at least 30 people were killed, while 19 deaths were reported in Rhineland-Palatinate state to the south. Belgian media reported eight deaths in that country. German Chancellor Angela Merkel expressed shock at the scope of the flooding and the number of deaths, adding that everything would be done to find those still missing. Evacuations also were ordered in the Dutch city of Maastricht.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PULGA, Calif.

The Dixie Fire is burning in California\u2019s Butte and Plumas counties, not far from where the 2018 conflagration killed 85 people. Meanwhile, the Bootleg Fire in southern Oregon has had more explosive growth and covers more than 355 square miles Thursday.
