Youth of the Nation: Before music filled the halls of The Kennedy Center, supporters of the National Foundation for Advancement in the Arts, the Commission on Presidential Scholars, and the U.S. Department of Education gathered to celebrate this year’s Presidential Scholar in the Arts awardees. Only 20 young artists from around the country are honored each year, and they certainly didn’t disappoint when they performed on stage. In the Audience: Joanne Mackara, Rick Boden, Christina DePaul, Karen Goodman.
