WHAT HAPPENED

The Kennedy Center board has voted to close the main building for a $250 million renovation, according to NPR Topics: Culture. This decision comes three months after a federal judge temporarily blocked a similar closure. The board also voted to add Trump's name back to the building.

The renovation is expected to cost $250 million, as reported by NPR. Other sources, including The Guardian and the South China Morning Post, confirm the board's decision to add Trump's name to the building, although no further details are provided on the specifics of the renovation or the reasoning behind the name addition.

The context surrounding the Kennedy Center board's decision is not fully clear from the available information, but the move to renovate and add Trump's name to the building may have significant cultural or symbolic implications.
