In a very special edition of OPEN Friday, host Rhina Valentin marks 20 years of the program by taking a nostalgic look back. The celebration begins with a tribute to the entertainment industry's finest, including the actors, directors, producers, and filmmakers who have graced the show. Next, she revisits the culinary experts and nutrition educators who have provided valuable insights over the past two decades. Rhina also takes pride in revisiting the notable literary figures featured on the show, ranging from novelists to children's book authors. To conclude the trip down memory lane, she highlights the exceptional creative abilities discovered through the Open Artist Spotlight.
