Cassandra Awards ceremony tonight

The Cassandra Prize Ceremony, in which the country’s most prestigious art and culture awards will be presented, will be telecast tonight at 7:00 p.m. on Channel 13. The annual event is organized by Cerveceria Nacional Dominicana, which makes Presidente Beer, in cooperation with the Art Chroniclers’ Association. This year’s show, which will be hosted by Ellis Perez and Tania Baez, is expected to be especially spectacular, since the budget is almost three times that of last year. Prizes will be awarded in 39 categories.
