Government Officials Captivated by Shen Yun

Over the weekend, Shen Yun Performing Arts delivered over 10 performances in four different cities across the United States and Europe. The mayors of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Greeley, Colorado, issued proclamations to the performers. "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, for an incredible show. Today was not just a show of beauty. It was a show of culture and richness," said Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey. "I'm really very happy that the show came to Greeley," said Congressman Ken Buck, who watched the performance in Greeley, Colorado. "It's really heartwarming. It was a beautiful performance, beautiful dance, and the music was beautiful," he said. "But what I really loved about it was the cultural aspect of how Chinese culture was displayed and accepted by the audience. I really felt that it was a special moment here to see that." He said Shen Yun's positive message can uplift people's spirits, especially in the midst of a pandemic. "It was such a positive message that was given. The song about what's so important on Earth and there are things that are more important than what we do here on Earth," he added. "We are challenged right now with the pandemic, and because we're challenged in other ways that are very serious matters going on in the world, and there are serious issues here at home, and I think people are depressed and really searching for something positive, and this performance was very positive and uplifting."
