Diplôme d'honneur
The Diplôme
d'honneur is presented annually to a Canadian who has
made a sustained contribution to the cultural life of the
country, whether through volunteer activity, mentoring, patronage,
individual arts practice or other recognized support. It was first awarded in 1954 to the Right Honourable Vincent Massey, then Governor General, in recognition of the Royal Commission Report on the Arts, Letter and Social Sciences. Since then, the CCA has recognized more
than 70 visionaries and creators of Canada's rich cultural
identity.
The award is in the form of a silver talisman designed by the late West Coast craftsmith, Bill Reid.
