Wedgwood Circle's President Craig Detweiler and new Community Director Chanshi Chibwe sat down to talk about the heart of who we are and where we're headed.
Why Wedgwood?
Chanshi: "What makes this community so special? What was the need for it to come together?"
Craig: "A lot of people were concerned about culture, trying to elevate things, and thought maybe that's through politics or power. And along the way, people discovered, no, I think it's probably through storytelling. It's through investing in good, true, and beautiful entertainment."
Who's in the Circle?
Chanshi: "What kind of people are part of this community that you are bringing together?"
Craig: "Wherever you find yourself telling stories, whether that even could be through fashion, could be through art. And if you're a patron of the arts, we're very excited you're here, because you're such an essential part of this ecosystem."
What does "Christian" mean here?
Craig: "Christian is first and foremost people. It's people who are creatives, created in the image of God."
Chanshi: "The world doesn't need more Christian art, but artists who are Christian, meaning that it informs the work that you do."
Craig: "We're just so happy you're here. You found your people."
