[Interview] The Ensemble Español’s Kim Grigsby: “In ‘Flamenco,’ There Is A Constant Effort Of Seeking The Duende”

BTSCelebs: Who is Kim Grigsby professionally? 

Kim Grigsby: I am the Associate Executive Director of the Ensemble Espanol Spanish Dance Theater. I work directly under Jorge Perez in running the organization. I work in external affairs, development, educational programs, and new initiatives.

What piqued your interest in performing arts? 

I grew up in the arts. My grandfather was an artist who was chair of the art department at Arizona State University. I grew up over the summers being exposed to the arts. I was a selected by the governor’s office in SC to attend the Governors school for the arts in theater. I have acted, been in several commercials and started a fashion design degree some years ago. So being a creative is in my blood. Formally trained as an attorney, I was not satisfied with practicing alone, so I started working with nonprofits to help them organize, fund, and provide educational pipelines for people in the creative fields. 

Tell us about the highlights on your road to the associate executive director role with The Ensemble.

We love our people. We love loving them. We live to support them in their endeavors. If they need our help, we’ll give until it hurts and then give even more. Nothing is more important than meeting the needs and asks of our loved ones.

Let’s begin by giving some distinction between enabling and supporting.
