Trump has initiated a rapid restructuring of the board at the Kennedy Center, a premier U.S. arts institution. Board members have received termination notices, with Trump announcing plans to replace them and assume the chairmanship. This unprecedented move comes as he outlined his vision for the arts and culture at the center, invoking the need for it to reflect American excellence. Historically, such a takeover has never happened at the Kennedy Center, and the implications of this shift raise questions about future artistic direction.
On Friday night, Kennedy Center President Deborah Rutter informed board members that some of their colleagues had already received termination notices from the administration.
The Kennedy Center is an American Jewel, and must reflect the brightest STARS on its stage from across our Nation.
