# 38th Artios Awards

The 38th Artios Awards, presented by the Casting Society of America, honoring the best originality, creativity and contribution of casting professionals to the overall quality of a film, television series, short form project and theatre production, were held on March 9, 2023, simultaneously at The Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles and Edison Ballroom in New York, being the first time in two years that the ceremony was an in-person event.
The nominations for the television, short form project, and theatre categories were announced on October 17, 2022. The nominees for the film categories were announced on January 10, 2023. Yvette Nicole Brown and Amber Ruffin both hosted the event simultaneously. The latter hosted in New York while the former hosted in Los Angeles; Brown previously hosted the first virtual awards ceremony in 2021 and was on hand to host the organization's first in-person gala in two years. Simone Bär posthumously received the European Capelier-Shaw Award for Excellence in Casting.
