Sheila Fortson is the founder and executive director of the FAME Center which is in Chicago’s South Loop District. Alternately known as the South Loop Center for the Arts, the organization serves underrepresented youth on the South and West Side of Chicago by providing equitable access to high-quality arts education. FAME Center is even more crucial today than ever before with many organizations and schools cutting budgets tied directly to arts education, the model that FAME Center is incorporating gives opportunity to many. Sheila joins Tom to discuss her passion for the arts, how her education influenced and assisted in her dreams of running a sustainable non-profit, and her relentless focus on helping others.
