STORYLINE:
In the first month of his second term, the President Donald Trump has ousted the leadership of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, filled the board of trustees with his supporters and announced he had been elected the board’s chair — unanimously.
Some artists have responded by canceling appearances.
Supported by government money and private donations and attracting millions of visitors each year, the center is a 100-foot high complex featuring a concert hall, opera house and theater, along with a lecture hall, meeting spaces and a “Millennium Stage” that has been the site for free shows.
The center’s very origins are bipartisan.
It was first conceived in the late 1950s, during the administration of Republican President Dwight Eisenhower, who backed a bill from the Democratic-led Congress calling for a “National Culture Center.”
