This year was a big year for the Granary Rural Cultural Center. It opened on June 1 with the second annual "Create! on the Prairie II" group art show highlighting area and South Dakota artists in the Granary Gallery. Many pieces reflected the varied landscapes and scenes of the South Dakota prairie in acrylics, oils, watercolors, sculpture and jewelry. The show culminated in a closing reception on Sept. 30.
Dr. Sean Flynn, professor of history and political science at Dakota Wesleyan University, will present his latest book; a biography of Benjamin Reifel, former Aberdeen resident and the first Lakota to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives (1961-1971).
