Erie County Executive and Mayor of the City of Niagara Falls also sent proclamations to Shen Yun Performing Arts and proclaimed May 27, 2010 "Shen Yun Day."
Paul A. Dyster, Mayor of the city of Niagara Falls, stated in the proclamation, "'Shen Yun' is a tale told to enchant, but it is also a story to uplift humanity through its message of peace, virtue and harmony as shared with its audience through a creative and fascinating stage presentation."
Erie County Executive Chris Collins stated in the proclamation, "Shen Yun has been highly recognized and obtained tremendous global support and proclamation; and the debut of this world class show in Buffalo will bring a heartfelt experience to our local residents."
U.S. Member of Congress (NY-27) Brian Higgins stated in his congratulatory letter, "This master of drama impresses the audience with intense choreography and music. The plot tells of stories from ancient heroic legends as well as modern day epics. It is an inspirational story that can be enjoyed by everyone. This inspiring tale sheds light on the ancient Chinese tradition that is often forgotten due to lost heritage under Communist rule. We should consider our city lucky to be able to sit back and enjoy a festival of emotion and vigor, such as Shen Yun."
