Aretha Franklin performs live for Carole King at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors.

²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵÃâ·Ñ°æapp Honors are given annually to select performing artists for their lifetime of contributions to American culture. Our Honors Memories series catches up with Honorees right after the Honors event to hear how they felt during tributes to their artistry, followed by a memorable performance from that night.

For over 40 years, the Kennedy Center and the arts and entertainment world have gathered every December to fete the annual slate of Kennedy Center Honorees and their unparalleled influence on American culture. Given this year’s extraordinary circumstances, the Honors will be re-imagined to celebrate our cultural icons in an unconventional, hybrid format featuring a mix of virtual tributes and small-capacity, in-person live performances in the late spring. The slate of Honorees and event date for the 43rd Kennedy Center Honors will be announced at a later date.
