The Trump Kennedy Center’s board of trustees voted to close the center for a two-year renovation, which will include repairs to the building’s systems and elevators. The project, set to cost $257 million, has been criticized by Democratic lawmakers who argue that the renovations should have required more congressional input. The center’s president, Ric Grenell, pushed back on these claims, stating that lawmakers had multiple opportunities to speak into the process. The renovations are expected to be completed in two years, after which the center will reopen with a “grand reopening.”
