Small towns are often filled with big hearts. Joining me on the podcast today is Sadie Swier, Community Outreach Coordinator for ‘Downtown Sioux Falls’, a non-profit focused on the economic expansion and fiscal growth of the area. Throughout the years, Sioux Falls has been home to dozens of successful community-oriented programs and events which have enriched the city and created an overwhelmingly inviting and friendly culture for all who come to visit. Most recently, the town has caught the attention of the multi-billion dollar company ‘Amazon’ and has been a huge selling point for organizations due to its thriving and diverse atmosphere. It’s a telling sign that by investing in small businesses and creating a sense of collaboration amongst people, we will start to see really positive results on every side and can expect to see greater and more prominent involvement from larger corporations. The work that Sadie and others like her are doing within Sioux Falls is so vital to keeping the passion and spirit of this community alive. Through events such as ‘Sculpture Walk’, ‘River Fest’, ‘Parade of Lights’ and so many others, the town has developed a greater appreciation for cultural and artistic endeavors and has been exposed to so many important and educational experiences.

The city of Sioux Falls has taught me so much during my time here. Joining me today to share the impact of his work as a sculptor and Founder of the ‘Sculpture Walk’, is Jim Clark! Jim spent his early years working as a banker in Sioux Falls and eventually moved into art and sculpting as a creative and whimsical outlet, bringing joy to so many living in the community. What was most important to Jim when sharing his creations, was the necessity he had to lift the mood of those within Sioux Falls. He believed the area was too beautiful to deprive it of public art and managed to band the town together, spearheading the campaign to elevate the already existing beauty that the town possessed.If you’re interested to hear more about Jim’s personal backstory, as well as his commitment to the installation, the ‘Sculpture Walk’, then tune in to Episode 22 of Moving Beyond Your Tribe!Some Questions I Ask:How did you get into the world of art and sculpting?
