  Mr. THANEDAR. Mr. Speaker, I include in the Record the following 
Proclamation honoring the 15th Anniversary of the Shen Yun Performing 
Arts Days:
  Whereas, Shen Yun Performing Arts was established in 2006 by a group 
of elite Chinese artists in New York with a mission of reviving 5,000 
years of Chinese culture, and since then, has grown into a household 
name around the world; and
  Whereas, Through the universal language of music and dance, Shen Yun 
weaves a wondrous tapestry of heavenly realms, ancient legends, and 
modern heroic tales, taking you on a journey through 5,000 years of 
Chinese culture, its stunning beauty and tremendous energy leave 
audiences uplifted and inspired; and
  Whereas, Shen Yun features the world's foremost classically trained 
dancers, a unique orchestra blending East and West, and dazzling 
animated backdrops--together creating one spectacular performance; and
  Whereas, There has been an overwhelming and positive response to Shen 
Yun Performing Arts around the world, it is traditional Chinese culture 
as it was meant to be, a study in grace, fluidity, inner strength, and 
positive virtues; and
  Whereas, Themes of kindness, compassion, and courage are brought out 
through the songs of eminent vocalists and stunning choreography, the 
human spirit triumphs over adversity in powerful, thought-provoking 
dances, providing an uplifting and inspiring experience, energizing our 
Motor City with hope; and
  Now therefore, be it resolved, I, Shri Thanedar, Member of Congress, 
do hereby proclaim the Shen Yun Performing Arts to be recognized for 
their artistic accomplishments and culture contributions to the city of 
Detroit.
