The Casting Society of America (CSA) hosted its annual Artios Awards at the Hard Rock Café on January 21.

Presented annually, the Artios Awards are given to CSA members using the criteria of originality, creativity, and contribution of casting to the overall quality of a project. Named for the Greek word meaning "perfectly fitted," the Artios Awards were first given in 1985 to honor excellence in casting and the ceremony was held at the Crystal Room of the Beverly Hills Hotel, with 500 industry leaders in attendance. The New York awards were first given in 1988.

Guests at the ceremony included Broadway vets including Zachary Levi (She Loves Me), Jeff Daniels (Blackbird), Annaleigh Ashford (Sylvia), Julianna Margulies (The Good Wife), Christian Slater (Mr. Robot), and more. Check out TheaterMania's photos in the gallery below.
