President Trump announced that he’s closing the Kennedy Center for two years for renovations. It comes as President Trump’s handpicked board of trustees added his name to the Kennedy Center’s building back in December, leading to a wave of artist boycotts. CNN is reporting that Kennedy Center staff found out about the closure through President Trump’s social media post about the renovation. It comes as the Kennedy Center currently lists no scheduled events to honor Black History Month, after several artists canceled their events to protest President Trump’s takeover.
