2024 Kennedy Center honorees include Grateful Dead and Bonnie Raitt, among others

The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the organization behind the annual celebration of artists and cultural icons, announced its 47th class of honorees Thursday exclusively on "CBS Mornings."

The recipients include award-winning filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola, legendary rock band the Grateful Dead, blues rock singer-songwriter Bonnie Raitt, jazz musician and composer Arturo Sandoval and the Apollo – the iconic New York City institution. 

It's the first time an organization like the Apollo has been recognized by the Kennedy Center Honors, which will celebrate all the honorees at a ceremony in December.
