My attempts at live blogging at yesterday’s Arts Day meetings was a challenge given my slightly frenetic meeting schedule. However, I’ve updated yesterday’s blog with play-by-play updates and photos so please take a look!
Perhaps the highlight of the event was a couple of heartfelt speeches given by both Heritage Minister James Moore and Canadian actress Cynthia Dale at the closing reception. The energy in the room was electric and by all accounts a wonderfully successful ending to a wonderfully successful day.
A special shout out to my colleagues on the the Steering Committee, Eric Dubeau, Melissa Gruber, Sarah Iley, Bastien Gilbert and especially to Katherine Carleton who, as always, does more than her fair share. It’s been a pleasure and privilege to work with such great people who are so committed to advancing the cause of the arts in Canada. Hats off to you!
