In this episode of Notes from Chicago, host Ashley Phillips sits down with founding Artistic Director and CEO of Red Clay Dance Company, Vershawn Sanders-Ward, to talk about how a 3-month trip to a fishing village in Senegal sparked the vision for one of Chicago's most dynamic dance companies. From building community on the South Side to co-creating work with urban farmers and young people in the juvenile detention system, Vershawn shares how Red Clay is much more than a dance company.
