Bryant community keeps 105-year-old theater alive

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) – The town of Bryant, South Dakota holds a historic gem that's over 100 years old. The Bryant Theater, located on Main Street in the town of around 500 people, has been operating for 105 years, according to a news release. Major gold find near Spearfish, South Dakota reported In February of 1920, The Strand Theatre opened, introducing locals to the magic of the silver screen. The first film shown was 'Daddy Long Legs', a 1919 American silent comedy-drama. At the time, admission ranged from only 5 to 25 cents. The theater has been a staple to Bryant's Main Street ever since, and for the past 25 years, the theater has been kept alive by volunteers alone. After nearly a year of waiting for approval, the theatre has received 501(C)(3) non-profit status, which will help the historic landmark keep up with the modern times through fundraising efforts, according to the news release. The current fundraising project aims to restore the buildings interior and exterior walls, doors, and flooring, in order to maintain the integrity of the historic landmark. In total, the goal is to reach $66,500, and the project has already raised 80% of that goal, according to the news release. The Bryant Theater has meant a lot to the community for decades, and over the years, it's seen many challenges and obstacles, but something that hasn't changed is the community's desire to keep the doors open. In 1977, the theater was known as Dakota Cinema, and owner Lynn Klungseth kept the theatre open for more than two decades. He was one of the first theater owners in the state to install Dolby Digital sound, according to the Bryan Theater website. When he decided to sell in 1999, community members came together to purchase the building to prevent it from closing. The group sold theater shares and accepted donations to keep the theater up and running. The theater holds showings on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings, and the cost is $4 per ticket. The concession stands are filled with pop, candy and popcorn. Funds collected from ticket sales, concessions, and movie sponsorships let the theater take care of daily operations. Now that The Bryant Theater is listed as a non-profit, the board of directors encourages patrons to donate, to keep the movies playing–for decades to come. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

Bergen Reilley meets with fans this weekend in Sioux Falls

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — She's one of the best college volleyball players in the country and she just so happens to be from Sioux Falls. Bergen Reilley is a two-time 'Big 10 Setter of the Year' and a 2nd team All-American for the Nebraska Cornhuskers' volleyball team. Structure fire burns townhomes in north Sioux Falls Bergen has come a long way since playing at O'Gorman High School, but despite all of her accolades, the 6'1″ junior still wants to accomplish one more thing. Reilley played two years under legendary volleyball coach John Cook. But Cook announced his retirement at the end of last season. KELOLAND News sat down with Reilley Friday afternoon to talk about Cook and what he's meant to her and the volleyball program. 'It's hard to put it into words, he's a legend in the game and for great reason, he had a great track record, but he really cared about his players and I think that's what made him so special he made us feel loved and special, even when he was hard on us, we knew it was out of a place of love,' Reilley said. Nebraska hired Dani Busboom Kelly, who coached at Louisville. 'She again also has a great track record; she flipped the Louisville program around; she just runs a new style offense and I think that'll be really fun for everyone to watch and it's been fun for us to practice already,' Reilley said. Being in the national spotlight, Reilley knows that comes with a huge responsibility, because a lot of young girls look up to her. She says her role model was another O'Gorman grad, Taryn Kloth, who played beach volleyball in the Olympics. 'She's the kind of person I try to emulate, she was always so good to me and that's how I hope to be with these younger girls, because volleyball is growing and women's sports is growing and it's awesome and it's great for the game and these younger girls now have these people to look up to,' Reilley said. Don: What is the one accolade that you are still after? Bergen: I mean it's a national championship of course, we go into every season and we are lucky enough at Nebraska that that's the goal every single year, obviously we want to win the Big 10 and all these other accomplishments too, but at the end of the day our goal is to win a national championship no matter how we do it. Bergen Reilley will be in Sioux Falls tomorrow at Luxury Auto Mall, signing autographs from 11 am to 1 pm. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Pottery studio teaching people how to throw it down

TEA, S.D. (KELO) —Many people can draw, paint, and do other art forms in your own home. But there is one medium that would be rather expensive to try at home, which is why a new business is giving rookie artists the opportunity to learn how to throw it down. For many people, pottery isn't their forte. 'Not really into art. I'm more into sewing and quilting. And so this is something totally new,' Carla Scott said. Opening weekend at Wild Water West But the same can't be said for Skyler Stencil.'I started in high school with my high school art professor, Gary Siska. He just really led me to a love for it,' Owner Smudge Studios, Skyler Stencil love only grew through college and graduation.'Thought I was going to study up and go to med school. But instead, I bought a pottery wheel, and I spent all my time doing that. And then I started working for Tom and Wanda Clark over at Dakota Potters. And I started by making clay for them, which only gave me easier access to my medium,' Stencil drove Stencil to make a big decision.'I decided that if I was going to do it forever, then I should probably make a living doing it,' Stencil opened Smudge Studios in March. One of the main reasons she wanted to open a pottery studio was to create a community aspect that she started to miss.'In high school, we always had tons of people in the studio, so that was awesome. Even more so true at Creighton. There was always at least 4 to 5 other people. And during class, like, you would have 12 other people. And I just really missed having the community around me while I made art,' Stencil. She has already been building that community. Carla Scott has been attending classes for the past few weeks. 'I've picked up pieces throughout the years from other people making art and stuff. Back in April, we did a whole family clay time and it was fun. So then decided to sign up for the class,' Scott Scott, learning how to throw pottery has been a learning curve.'You know how you watched Ghost. And you thought it was so easy, that was how it was going to be. And it's not like that. And when you're smashing it down, a lot of times it just– it's a good thing it can be reused,' Scott said. Teaching beginners like Scott has also been a new experience for Stencil. 'In a clay date where I have two hours to get someone to learn how to center a piece. So all the way to finishing shaping. Right. Like, that's those are skills I learned over years, and, like, I got to be good at it. It's been very difficult to teach people how to do that within two hours,' Stencil her students can't tell that it's been a struggle. 'Sky is a wonderful teacher,' Scott people a new skill, in a medium that isn't as popular. 'When my first piece got done, I was just amazed how good it looks. And this time I've done a few bowls and then a plate. And so yeah, I was excited to finish that and a tray and stuff. It's just amazing to see when it's done,' Scott said.'I hope that Smudge can offer a place for art. This is the first full-scale pottery studio in the area definitely. And I just hope that people can dip their toes into an art that's not always very accessible,' Stencil said. For people who are interested in trying their hand at throwing pottery, Smudge Studios offers clay date classes. If you think you would like to then grow your pottery skills, there are also 5-week classes you can take. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
