Wednesday evening presents an intriguing array of activities in Minot, offering both intellectual stimulation and artistic reflection. At Blue Rider, Minot’s toughest trivia game kicks off at 7 PM. Prepare for a battle of wits as teams compete for the ultimate prize—respect and the possibility of a free drink. It’s a test of knowledge and creativity, so expect team names that push the boundaries of wit. And don’t forget the essentials: pizza, grilled cheese, or, if you’re feeling adventurous, a pop-tart.
For those seeking visual inspiration, the Taube Museum of Art is hosting a matinee showcasing Kathleen Herlihy Paoli’s Act Three series. These larger-than-life oil paintings explore pressing societal issues through dynamic imagery framed by stage curtains—a unique perspective on today’s political and environmental challenges.
If your interests lie in the culinary realm, Prairie Sky Breads offers the Brie-Licious turkey melt, the perfect midweek indulgence. Turkey, brie, and apple slices come together for a sandwich that’s as thoughtful as it is delicious.
