Workers repaint lettering outside the The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts after the building was renamed in honor of US President Donald Trump on December 19, 2025, in Washington, DC. The US capital’s renowned John F. Kennedy arts center was renamed the “Trump-Kennedy Center” after President Donald Trump, the White House announced on December 18, 2025. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the center’s board — which Trump purged of Democrats earlier this year — voted for the change because of the Republican’s “unbelievable work” in overhauling the famed venue.

“It’s been mistreated, a little bit like the White House has been mistreated to be honest with you, and we are bringing it back to a level that I don’t think any place in the country will see,” Trump said.
