Judge Comment:
Excellent commitment from journalists finding and writing important local community arts stories that go deeper than a notice of upcoming performance, promote emerging youth artists, recognize the impact of a career and legacy, and sharing the excellence and local talent.
Competition Comment:
Canada has artistic talent in all disciplines across the country. The journalists who cover the arts are behind the scenes, sharing their communication and storytelling talents to amplify the work of Canadian artists. Well done!
