  Mr. MOSKOWITZ. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Kelley Shanley, 
the President and CEO of the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, 
for his 25 years of leadership and countless contributions to the 
industry.
  As a patron of the arts, Kelley Shanley has made endless 
contributions to Broward County, including but not limited to a yearly 
$130 million financial impact, as well as opening the Rose Miniaci Arts 
Education Center, which has fostered a love of the arts for over 
130,000 students annually. Under his leadership, the Broward Center has 
developed a reputation as a leader in the performing arts industry, 
with over 700 performances each year, viewed by more than 700,000 
guests. It is known for bringing South Florida the finest arts and 
entertainment programs. The Broward Center has become a cultural anchor 
and beacon of community impact and engagement in the downtown arts 
district.
  Shanley is admired for many things, but his commitment to innovation 
and how he has redefined the role of the performing arts center stand 
out the most. Through his hard work and leadership, the Broward Center 
and The Parker, a sister theater, have been revolutionized and 
transformed into world-class entertainment facilities.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that you join me in recognizing the President and 
CEO of the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, Kelley Shanley, for 
his outstanding career and leadership of the Broward Center in 
Florida's 23rd Congressional District.
