Reba to Be Honored by the Kennedy Center

July 30, 2018

The Kennedy Center Honor is one of the most prestigious awards anyone can receive, given to those who have distinguished themselves in the arts, science, political and business world. We’re thrilled to announce that Reba McEntire will be amongst those honored this fall, along with Cher, jazz saxophonist Wayne Shorter, with special honors will be given Lin-Manuel Miranda and Philip Glass (Hamilton creators).

Raise your glass to Reba, Philip, Wayne, Cher, and Lin-Manuel, this year’s Kennedy Center Honorees, with the ceremony taking place in late fall, and airing on December 26th on CBS.
