Red Clay Dance was, also, awarded a $750 grant from the Cliff Dwellers Club. We thank the Cliff Dwellers Club immensely for their generosity and acknowledgement."
In 1907, Chicago author Hamlin Garland and friends founded the Attic Club, which two years later was re-named The Cliff Dwellers. Now, as then, it is a private club and functions as a non-profit organization for men and women either professionally engaged in, or who support, the fine arts and the performing arts."
