## Resource

The Kennedy Center’s survival hangs by a thread as it faces imminent fiscal collapse, with board members demanding President Trump’s name be reinstated on the building to secure funding—threatening to return millions in donations if they don’t comply. Amid crumbling infrastructure, including a recent ceiling fall, the center is using urgency to justify renovations tied to Trump’s branding, while lawsuits, leadership turmoil, and artist departures add to the chaos.
