President Donald Trump announced he would host the Kennedy Center Honors, which will go to actor Sylvester Stallone, rock band Kiss and singer Gloria Gaynor among others during the first year of his chairmanship of Washington, DC’s main performing arts center.
The president also vowed to “fully renovate” the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, including replacing seats and fixing infrastructure, using $257 million from his signature tax and spending bill to make it “a crown jewel of American arts and culture.”
