The Legacy Conversation Series provides a glimpse into the history, culture, and artistic vision of the Chicago Black Dance Legacy Project’s eight diverse dance companies. Each monthly, moderated conversation presents a vital opportunity to delve into the stories of creative leaders and their companies, and the significant impact their legacies have made in Chicago and beyond.
Ayodele, a Yoruba word meaning joy in the home, is a sisterhood of women who recognize the guidance of the Creator in our mission to study, heal and express ourselves through African Drum and Dance. Since our inception in 2007; we’ve been passionate in our effort to empower and strengthen the women in our community through knowledge and education of the her/story, rituals, music, and dances of African culture.
Whether we’re teaching children, healing the community with classes, producing sold-out concerts, studying with female Samba Masters in Brazil, Master Djembe and Dununfolas of West Africa, or spreading our healing energy through performances; Ayodele Drum & Dance remains an unending circle firmly rooted in joy.
