President Trump has overseen a series of dramatic changes at the Kennedy Center since taking office at the beginning of the year.
The most significant shifts came in two waves, both of which resulted in artists canceling performances in protest of Trump’s takeover of the cultural institution.
In February, Trump replaced multiple board members with allies, who then elected Trump chair of the board, days after the president first announced on social media that he would serve in the position. He then named longtime ally Richard Grenell the center’s interim executive director.
This month, the board voted to rename the center “The Donald J. Trump and the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts.” The president also hosted the Kennedy Center Honors ceremony, which aired last week.
