2007 SPECIAL EDITION PROOF SILVER DOLLAR CELEBRATION OF THE ARTS

 

For thousands of years, people have been drawn together by the performing arts. Whether it took place by the glow of a fire or under the lights of the grandest theatre, its promise remained the same the occasion to put aside the daily troubles of life and join others to sing, dance and play; to explore new ideas or challenges; to experience the emotions of the past and present or dream of a future yet to be realized. A dancer leaps across the stage. An orchestra rises to a crescendo. Like an artist sweeping colour across a canvas, musicians, actors, writers and singers create their masterworks using a myriad of tools, bounded only by the limits of their imagination. Auditorium walls expand as television, film and everevolving broadcast media reach spectators far away. The audience becomes larger, more diverse yet the community feels closer. This is the promise of performing arts in Canada uniting cultural diversity across its vastness.
