On Sunday night, Dec. 8, President Joe Biden hosted the 47th Annual Kennedy Center Honors at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. In continuation of the celebration, CBS aired the program last night, Sunday, December 22. 

The occasion, a testament to the rich history of art and culture, celebrated the Grateful Dead, Bonnie Raitt, Arturo Sandoval, Francis Ford Coppola and the Apollo for their significant influence on the evolution of creative expression through music, film, and other media.
