(FILES) Interim Executive Director/President of the Kennedy Center Richard Grenell arrives for the 48th Kennedy Center Honors gala at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, on December 7, 2025. US President Donald Trump announced on March 13, 2026 the replacement of Grenell at the head of the Kennedy Center, the storied Washington arts venue he renamed after himself then closed for two years for refurbishment. Grenell, whom Trump appointed last year to rid the center of what the Republican called "woke" ideology, will be replaced by Matt Floca, the president said on his Truth Social platform.
